Conversation on Carex: An Evening with the Unique Wetland Plants of the San Juan

Come learn about the biology and ecology of the sedges (Carex sp.) found in the San Juan Mountains. This talk will be comprised of two parts. The first an overview and introduction to the basics of Carex biology and identification and the second a focus on the ecology of Carex as it relates to the high elevation wetlands of the southwest Colorado. This talk will be led by Anthony Culpepper with Mountain Studies Institute. For the past 8 years, Anthony has managed several of MSI’s alpine wetland and fen mitigation projects. His time spent knee deep in fens have given him a deep appreciation of the complexity and diversity of sedges found in our backyard.
