From The Natural Gardener –

Saturday, June 17th at 10amValerie Bugh presents “Pollination Ecology”.

The movement of pollen from stamen to stigma is a major issue for plants, and they cannot easily do it themselves. While bees are the first resource that comes to mind when pollination is mentioned, no ecosystem is simple; complexity demands multiple solutions to the issue. We will look at the various animals that interact with plants in this process, and discuss the expenditures, risks and compensations.

Valerie runs the Fauna Project at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center and is the author of pocket guides to “Butterflies of Central Texas,” “Spiders of Texas” and “Spiders of Florida.”  http://www.austinbug.com/index.html
