Mallnow


Today we took a field trip to a site near Mallnow, Germany with Michael (our local field botanist), Miranda, and Pedro.


It's a beautiful spot, and a hotspot for plant diversity. Notice in the background the Oder River, that separates Germany from Poland. 


Miranda and Michael discussing botany


A wild plum tree. We lost Miranda for a bit as she pulled out a brown paper bag and filled it with tasty ripe plums



Wild oregano. I may as well be in Greece. Actually this spot was loaded with mediterranean plants. 


A nice break in the much-needed shade


The Oder River.
