Thank you to Ben Lehr, from Monroe Conservation District, for speaking to our MCMGA yesterday. He gave us quite an education on Bats. Extremely enjoyable by all who attended. I’ve attached a scanned copy of the handouts he provided to us. May we all be more educated on bats and appreciate their value.

Jennie sent me this to post:
Time to report!
Remember the clivia seeds/seedlings Olga gave us the
last time she spoke to our group on propagation? I read that they bloom
better when pot-bound and mine had 3 flower stalks come up so far this
year. Must have been trying to tell me something but I didn’t get the
message until it popped the side off the ceramic pot. How about this
cut-away view of its fat roots!
