The past month has been highlighted by work on some of the later stages of seed collecting and production. At the beginning of the month, we completed several trips to a production farm in Chino Valley, where we weeded plots, planted plugs of Lotus wrightii and Argemone pleicantha, and collected several lawn bags of Elymus elymoides and Achiellia millefolium. Later in the month, we worked on the Leo Grove restoration site in Payson, where we raked pine needles and seeded almost 3 acres of land! After finishing at Leo Grove, we revisited Diamond Point to check on the population of the Penstemon linaroides that we found. Thankfully, the population wasn’t wiped out by the recent burn that it was exposed to. We finally made our collection for that point and also found some more quartz points!
