Plant Species Explained
What does it mean to be a "species" in Castilleja?
Presented by Dr. Sarah Jacobs
Yesterday the Coastside Land Trust welcomed Dr. Sarah Jacobs, curator of botany at the CA Academy of Sciences, for a captivating talk on what defines a "species." Dr. Jacobs explored how new plant species emerge, and dove into the biology and ecology of the rare Coastal California Castilleja Complex- the vibrant, colorful Paintbrush plants found only along our shores.
