Excited to share the “New York City Tree Alphabet” tomorrow with @NYCParks at our first Tree Planting session of the year. Soon it’ll be available as a free font so everyone can write love letters, in #trees. Then we’ll plant words, poems, and maybe even stories, around NYC.

Breaking: the Leopold lab has crafted a monopoly on doorstops in Illick Hall, a rare commodity. Will share for bourbon. #botanistpowerplay

@natureserve 's Anne Frances: "There are so many rare spp for which we're missing basic life histories." Researchers can help. #Botany2017
