Sunflowers Version 2.0



So after our first debacle with our sunflowers (aka massive death), our second round is growing up nicely. With the help of Kojo, Nita, Bethany, Mark, Chelsea, Carolyn, and AJ (basically the entire lab), all 400 sunflowers have been successfully transplanted into pots where they will live out the rest of their lives as sentinel plants for our pollination study. We are really excited that they are healthy and will help us determine if pollination services are sufficient in the urban gardens and vacant lots of Cleveland. When they are starting to bloom I will be sure to share the view.
