SUMMARY:Blossoms in America's Backyard
DESCRIPTION:(DC) (Rock Creek Conservancy) This time of year in Washington\, DC is all about the Cherry Blossoms\, but before the cherry trees on the Tidal Basin were a thing\, the roots of DC’s cherry blossom history got planted in the Rock Creek Valley. Come for a short ranger talk about the history of cherry trees in Washington away from the bustle of the Tidal Basin and then enjoy a walk up to 2 miles through some of our trails to see what’s blooming this spring in Rock Creek Park.

SUMMARY:Invasive Plant Early Detection at Peirce Mill
DESCRIPTION:(DC) (Rock Creek Conservancy) Help the National Capital Region Invasive Plant Management Team\, Rock Creek Park\, and Invader Detectives survey for Corydalis incisa (Incised Fumewort). We will be hiking along the creek on trails south of Peirce Mill and using pin flags and iNaturalist to record any instance of the plant that we find. Corydalis incisa was first detected in Bronx County\, NY in 2005 and has spread rapidly across the East coast ever since. C. incisa forms dense populations that suppress native plant growth. Our goal is to search for and understand the extent of both of this species so we can assess potential responses.
