Phenology Exercise

I have contributed four photos to illustrate the various stages of flowering and leaf phenology.

For the plant with no flowers, I discovered a tree that lacks flowers and leaves. If you look very close at the picture, you can see budding ends of the tree, which are most likely going to flower later on. However, I do not know the name of this tree, therefore I labeled it “Kingdom Plantae.”

As for the plant with flowers, I found a plant with white flowers that stood out to me near Strawberry Creek. I also do not know the name of this plant, so I simply identified it under “Kingdom Plantae.”

For the plant with leaves, I found this bush, which was leafing out that reminded me of Christmas which I do not know the name of either—thus labeling it as “Kingdom Plantae.”

I located a plant that is dormant and without leaves on campus which was completely bare on campus, and unfortunately, I do not know the name of this tree either so I labeled it as “Kingdom Plantae.”

As you can see by the four examples I provided, I located many plants demonstrating the many stages of leafing and flowering phenology.
