Wild Urban Plants of the Northeast

What's that pesky plant that keeps popping up in your beautiful urban garden? Chances are that Peter Del Tredici can help you figure that out in his new book, Wild Urban Plants of the Northeast. Del Tredici is a research scientist at Boston's Arnold Arboretum. This book isn't a "how to kill a weed" book, but is more of a "how can I appreciate this amazingly persistent plant" book. It will likely change how you view the little green monsters poking up through the sidewalks and urban habitats of the South End.

Peter is giving a talk about this book at the Harvard Museum of Natural History, tomorrow, April 11th.
