"Hi, My Name Is..."

Not a prairie plant guru?  No problem!  Now on the Berry Prairie are plant identification tags so you can stroll through and know what you're looking at.  There are nearly 60 species of grasses, forbs (wildflowers) and shrubs on the Berry Center's green roof, so the name tags will help you recognize a number of the plants that grow in the Laramie basin.  

For additional guidance, pick up a brochure at the gate, which looks like this.

Many of the forbs and grasses on the Berry Prairie now have identification tags to help you recognize them.

Come check it out this weekend with your friends or family!
