Rare Plants & Habitat Conservation
In this video, In Defense of Plants explores a chunk of property in southern Appalachia that is slated for housing development. The only reason this land has not yet been converted is because it is very costly to grade on such steep slopes. We will meet some of the many plants that call this slope home, including a very rare sedge, Fraser's sedge (Carex fraseriana). If anything, this video should stand as a reminder that habitat conservation needs to happen at all scales, big and small.
