SUMMARY:Tucson Chapter Meeting - The Ecology of Coral Bean (Erythrina flabelliformis) in Arizona\, presented by Lyn Loveless
DESCRIPTION:Coral bean (Erythrina flabelliformis) is a broad-leaved shrub with dramatic\, scarlet hummingbird pollinated flowers\, which reaches its northernmost distribution in southern Arizona.  It’s found in the foothills of the Sky Islands\, from about 2500-5000 ft in elevation\, mostly in rocky oak and mesquite grassland.  In this talk\, Lyn will summarize what she and her collaborators have learned about its life history\, its flowering biology\, and the various interactions that this plant has with other species in the habitats where it is found. \nLyn is a plant population biologist and population geneticist who is interested in how genes move about in natural populations.  A retired biology professor who taught at The College of Wooster in Ohio before moving to Tucson\, Lyn has been working on Coral Bean in southern Arizona and Sonora for 15 years.  She and her students have undertaken a wide variety of projects\, first at the Southwest Research Station in the Chiricahua Mountains\, and then at the Amerind Foundation in Dragoon.  One of the first things she did upon moving to Tucson was to join the Native Plant Society\, and her favorite way to spend time is to go out looking for cool plants.

SUMMARY:A Morning Stroll in a Happily Recovering Desert
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, September 24th and Sunday\, September 25th (two tour alternatives) \nMeet at the Waterman Restoration Site in Tucson \nDirections: 19 Miles east of I-10 on Avra Valley Road\, turn left at the Pioneer sign\, drive one mile ahead and bear left all the way. \nPlease wear sturdy shoes and bring a camelback or fanny pack for water. We will be walking slowly but over uneven and sometimes rocky terrain. \n8:00 AM- 10AM \nLimit: 12 participants \nRSVP to nativeplantstucson@gmail.com \nThe Waterman Restoration site on Ironwood Forest National monument is now in full desert recovery with over 110 native plant species and a gradually increasing number of insects\, birds\, small mammals\,  reptiles and even visits of desert sheep. In the mid-2000s this same site was known as the “Mother of all Buffelgrass Patches”. \nAfter generous recent rains\, the desert is now coming alive. Perennial plants are leafing out and new plants are emerging underfoot. We will stroll through a desert in various stages of restoration\, walking among mid-size and newly emerging desert trees\, ocotillos\, and bushes; learning how to identify them in different phases.  We will learn about many overlooked plants that are powerful restoration agents and soil builders. We will see plant succession in action among trees and shrubs. We will also see how simple water harvesting techniques have brought life-giving moisture to the landscape and healed areas that had been bare and apparently “sterile”.   Best of all we will discover new things from participants who happen to see something unexpected or who have knowledge or observations to share with the group. \nThis will be an opportunity to enjoy the desert together and learn from one another!
