Plants are People too: Botany Podcast
Centering around the topics of botany, taxonomy, native flora, ecological and the evolutionary traits of plants, this podcast is designed to bring attention to and broaden the botanical knowledge of it's audience. While we can't know everything, with this podcast I hope to spark ideas and curiosity of the audience to dig deeper into botanical realms. Primarily focused on the native flora of North American, and in particular, New England, the majority of the topics and botanical species discussed will pertain to the Northeast region of the United States.

Episode 13
Episode 13 of the Plants are People too Podcast is brought to you by the Bureau of Secret Tourism. In this episode, I discuss some familiar wetland plants and some simple ID characteristics of the non-native vs native species. These ubiquitous plant species, Phragmites (australis and americanus) and Typha (latifolia and angustifolia) or the Cat-Tail, are found in much of North America and can have profound positive and negative wildlife impacts.
