INWOOD HILL PARK

Time: Wednesday, May 5, 6:00-7:30 pm, FREE!
Location: Meet at the Inwood Hill Park Nature Center at 218 Street and Indian Road
Guide: Matt Palmer, Professor, Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Environmental Biology, Columbia University

Walk Description:  Inwood Park’s forests contain mature red oak and some of the largest tulip trees in the City. There is also a rich, moist valley between two rock ridges called The Clove. During the early spring, the valley is covered in wildflowers, which are able to thrive in the sun before the tree canopy leafs out. Some of these wildflowers include the city-rare downy yellow violet (Viola pubescens), bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) and Dutchman’s breeches (Dicentra cucullaria).
