PLANT OF THE WEEK
Dr. Thomas Ombrello
UCC - Biology Department
Next to the Siburn Greenhouse on the second floor of the Science Building on the Cranford Campus is a display case featuring a plant of special interest. Along with the living specimen, a short essay describing the unique attributes of the species is available as a handout. The featured plant changes on an irregular basis, even though the display case is titled Plant of the Week.
Over many years, a number of species have been exhibited as a Plant of the Week. Slowly, but surely, the written material on these plants is being posted on this website.
The Plant of the Week essays currently available are listed here on the left. Just click on the name of the plant that you want information on.
