Diario del proyecto KNPS Wildflower Week 2022 Botany Blitz

Blitzers: last week was truly an incredible showing, AND it was great to finally meet some of you at the KNPS Wildflower Weekend!

Does anyone have any more observations to upload? Don't delay! We're currently at 4,496 obs -- just 4 more and we hit 4.5K for the week.

We'll take some time to keep identifying observations for a week or so, then announce the winners of Most Species, Most Observations, and Most Identifications. As always, click here to help out your fellow botanyblitzers by adding or confirming identifications:

--> HELP IDENTIFY

Thank you all for a great week and weekend celebration, I hope you had a blast!

-Vanessa

The leaderboard has been a rollercoaster ride! You can click here if you want to view your current rank, rankings can be sorted by Most Obs and Most Species.

Some details for this evening:

• We broke 2,000 obs!
• We're very close to hitting 400 species, currently at 384 at time of reporting.
• @davidenrique joins the 50+ identifications club, and @laurabaird and @emerlee are right on the edge with 49 and 45 ID's, respectively. From far away in that other great commonwealth of Pennsylvania, @burls has rocketed into 1st place Identifier, with nearly 400 identifications made for Kentucky botanizers.

If you're curious what species have been observed this year that we didn't observe last year (and vice versa), keep an eye on the Compare tool throughout the week (page may take a sec to load). A lot of the differences in species lists between 2021 and 2022 will be due to this year's blitz being held a touch earlier in April, as well as a slightly cooler and slower start to spring. But some of the differences are interesting: nobody in the project observed Houstonia pusilla last year? Weird. Anyway, if you scroll down to where the "seen in 2021 and not in 2022" starts, there's a whole boatload species to put on your hitlist for the week.

Interested in helping with identification?

There are a lot more observations this year, and any IDs you can add or confirm helps to preserve the completeness and accuracy of Kentucky iNat data. It also helps train your eyes for the next time you're out and about. I've divvied up the most frequently observed taxa into somewhat more bite-sized units for folks who want to join the ID effort, you can click the links below to focus your efforts on particular groups of species.

If you'd like to make some ID's but you're newish to the world of wildflowers, you might want to try The Classics, Level I - This includes our most distinctive and iconic native species that many beginners can identify confidently, such as Virginia bluebells, mayapple, dwarf larkspur, bloodroot, wood poppy, blue-eyed Mary, and more. However if you're more experienced and want a challenge, you should try your hand at...

The Classics, Level II - This includes many common genera that require a closer examination or a little more experience to ID, such as violets, waterleaves, phacelias, toothworts, buttercups, ragworts, and others.

Monocots excluding Poales - Some of the most elegant and photogenic spring wildflowers, including Trilliums, jack-in-the-pulpit, trout lilies, Solomon's seal, orchids, and friends.

Bryophytes - Kind of niche for many of us, but check out this selection if you have any moss ID experience (@morghan-mccool might be able to help us out here?)

Unknowns in need of rescue - Sometimes new users accidentally create observations without adding an initial ID, and these no-ID obs can't be collected into the BotanyBlitz project unless they've at least been ID'd as Kingdom Plantae (although some of them might be for animals or fungi, so just ID accordingly). There may be a few lonely observations in here from time to time, any ID you can add will help bump them out of Unknown Limbo.

Looks like we've got a rainy couple of days coming up, hope you get a chance to get outside between showers!

First off, thanks a million to our iNat tutorial hike leaders across the state for sharing your knowledge and your love of Kentucky natural areas! Hope everyone had a lovely (if slightly brisk?) day outside, I know I did. Second, welcome new project members! We now have 133 wildflower fans in the BotanyBlitz project :)

Yesterday, we had

• 52 observers who made
• 747 observations, which were comprised of
• 204 species! Awesome stuff, you guys. (Numbers may change over time as more members add their observations.)
• 50 identifiers helped get 59% of our observations to Research Grade, which is a pretty dang high %RG for Day 1 of a botanyblitz -- thanks especially to @m_whitson, @emileee, @burls, and @john_adams who each made over 50 identifications for BotanyBlitz members!

If you have a little spare time to volunteer, can you help improve our Research Grade ratio by adding and confirming identifications for your fellow botanizers? Click the link below to pitch in:

--> HELP IDENTIFY

Another way you can help is to keep an eye on the "Unknowns" rolling in throughout the week. Sometimes new users accidentally create observations without adding an initial ID, and these no-ID obs can't be collected into the BotanyBlitz project unless they've at least been ID'd as Kingdom Plantae (although some of them might be for animals or fungi, so just ID accordingly). Literally any ID you can add will bump these obs out of Unknown Limbo, and is a huge assist to the observers. Click here to help monitor these lonely observations:

And of course, some pics

Finally, here are a few observation photos I'm admiring from yesterday:

Two-leaf miterwort (or bishop's cap), a true special snowflake and an exceedingly challenging flower to photograph at less than 1/4" across, by @hitmewithyourmesomphix

Extra fancy rue anemone by @laurabaird

Always photogenic white troutlily by @dperkins

True blue Virginia bluebells by @reupurtbones

Very pretty color form of the normally deep burgundy red trillium by @john_abrams

How about you?

What was your favorite thing to see yesterday? Did you meet any new species for the first time? Let us know in the comments :)

Browse through the rest of the BotanyBlitz observations here!

Good morning fellow Kentucky botanists! We're coming down to the wire here. The BotanyBlitz officially starts tomorrow, and as of this morning, Friday April 1, Kentuckians in 2022 have made

- A little over 6,100 plant observations in total, consisting of
- 615 plant species

These observations were made by a whopping 810 observers, and only a fraction of these folks have joined the BotanyBlitz and year-long Kentucky Botanists Big Year projects! We gotta pull more of these iNatters into the fold, y'all. If you enjoy botanyblitzing this week, you should definitely click "join" at the Big Year project as well if you haven't done so yet, just sayin' ;)

A hearty welcome to new project members who joined since the last time I posted here: @acostelle, @laura3570, @noelmansfield, @kentuckycourtenay, @chooshemataha, @dperkins, @jason_gaines, @rosemary71, @klburt, @inaturecenter, @ns_mar, @robin512, @jamie_strang, @cindy411, and @naba-centralky . Glad to have you with us! If you haven't seen previous journal posts here, you might want to scroll through the rest of the project journal where you can find discussions of helpful ID tips for several common plants.

If you need ideas for some interesting plants to hunt for, check out this blog post at the KNPS Lady Slipper. Depending on where you botanize in Kentucky, you may encounter one or more of these uncommon to rare wildflowers during the BotanyBlitz.

Is there anything in particular you're looking forward to seeing in bloom this week across Kentucky, or next Friday and Saturday during Wildflower Weekend at Natural Bridge State Park? Anybody got a hitlist for special species you're on the prowl for?

In March and early April, along wet roadside ditches, moist woodland openings, and shaded floodplains, you may find an abundance of a certain conspicuous seedling having large, rounded leaves that are shallowly notched at the tip:

(seedling pics by @terrikoontz)

These rubbery, bluish-green, and decidedly chonky cotyledons belong to Kentucky's two native Jewelweed species, the orange-flowered Impatiens capensis and the yellow-flowered Impatiens pallida. Both species have seed leaves that are distinctively oversized, with each leaf about the size of a quarter. As the stem begins to elongate, these seed leaves give way to the plant's true leaves, which are hairless, ovate, and broadly toothed along the edges:

(Jewelweed plants with stem leaves and cotyledons still attached by @mewells)

I'm not aware of a reliable way to identify Jewelweed seedlings to species, although later in the spring when the plants are larger, you can tell them apart before flowering time by examining the teeth along the leaf edges: the leaves of Impatiens capensis generally have 9 or fewer teeth on each side of the leaf, while those of Impatiens pallida usually have 10+ teeth per side.

And as always...

If these "ID Tips" journal posts have been singing your song, please do join the Kentucky Botanists Big Year 2022 iNat project, where I'll be continuing this series after the conclusion of KNPS's 2022 BotanyBlitz on April 9. I'd love to see you all there! :)

We're fast approaching (or maybe already there in certain areas) that point in spring where there's no question which Dicentra species we're looking at, it's either tiny breeches or tiny hearts:

(Left: Dutchman's Breeches (Dicentra cucullaria) by @herbane; Right: Squirrel Corn (Dicentra canadensis) by @maryrebeccau)

But what about before the flowers have fully developed? We've all been there, in early to mid-March, impatiently staring at a clump of Dicentra leaves and wanting to know which species it is. Fortunately, there are a couple of clues that can reveal their identities from relatively early on! The following images are from this observation of Squirrel Corn, side by side with with Dutchman's Breeches.

Clue 1: Lower Leaf Surface

Turn over a leaf and examine the color of the underside. The difference can be subtle, but Dutchman's Breeches is pale green on the underside (on the left in both photos), whereas Squirrel Corn has a grayish cast (on the right in the photos), particularly on newer leaves, although the intensity of the grayish cast does seem to diminish somewhat as Squirrel Corn foliage matures.

Clue 2: Corm Shape

Dicentra corms often sit rather close to the soil surface, and may be partially visible if you pull back the leaf litter at the base of the plant. If you can see the tops of any corms, look for either pointed-tipped corms (like garlic cloves) for Dutchman's Breeches, or rounded potato-like corms for Squirrel Corn.

So next time you're out photographing either of these species, make sure to flip over a leaf and gently check for visible corms, they might help you recognize these wildflower friends earlier than you thought possible!

Today I thought we'd take a look at two common, native, small-flowered Buttercups, Ranunculus abortivus (Small-flowered or Kidney-leaf Buttercup) and Ranunculus micranthus (Rock Buttercup). In overall aspect, these two are strikingly similar:

• basal leaves on long petioles that vary from basically round to kidney-shaped to tri-lobed
• stem leaves that are deeply 3-lobed with lanceolate to oblong lobes
• dinky flowers
• not particularly restricted to any particular habitat, and can be found in a variety of dry to mesic wooded sites, fields, riparian areas, roadsides, etc.

Looking at them side by side, you can see how it's kind of a "Patty Duke Show" situation, but with buttercups:

(Left: R. abortivus by @easter22; right: R. micranthus by @sarcasticdungbeetle)

(Left: Basal rosette of R. abortivus by @sam727, right: Basal rosette of R. micranthus by @tanyuu)

Even so, you might be able to visually detect a key difference from the above photos: the foliage and stems of Ranunculus micranthus appears more grayish-green due to the presence of long, soft hairs on the stem and petioles, and the light pubescence on the leaves. Ranunculus abortivus tends to be darker or deeper green, because its stems, petioles, and foliage are all glabrous (hairless). This is probably the easiest ways to tell the two apart vegetatively; here are some closeups:

(Left: glabrous stem of R. abortivus by @emily7; right: softly hairy stem of R. micranthus by @vvoelker)

As you become more familiar with these two, you'll notice a few more differences:

• The bases of basal leaves are more truncate to cuneate for R. micranthus, compared to kidney-shaped to cordate for R. abortivus
• On average, R. abortivus tends to be a bit more robust in stature, often with with stouter stems
• Although it is possible for them to co-occur in the same habitat, R. micranthus is slightly more conservative and skews toward somewhat drier habitats

For further reading and additional comparison notes, the website Missouri Plants has great photos and descriptions of both R. abortivus and R. micranthus.

Note: these are not the only small-flowered Buttercup species in Kentucky, but they are two of the most common and widespread lookalikes. A few other small-flowered Buttercups to be aware of include:

• Ranunculus recurvatus - Also common and widespread, but with larger stem leaves and generally less likely to be mistaken for abortivus or micranthus (distribution in KY)
• Ranunculus allegheniensis - Restricted to the southeastern Appalachian Plateau counties, this species may resemble R. abortivus in overall aspect and glabrous stems, but with hairy sepals instead of hairless (distribution in KY)
• Ranunculus harveyi - Most similar to R. micranthus, but with noticeably slightly larger petals. This species is only known from Cumberland and Clinton Counties in Ky (distribution in KY)
• Ranunculus sceleratus - tends to be a wetland or wetland-adjacent species (distribution in KY)
• Uncommon to rare native wetland Buttercups - Ranunculus ambigens, Ranunculus laxicaulis, Ranunculus pusillus
• Non-native and weedy - Ranunculus parviflorus

And finally...

If you enjoy these "ID Tips" journal posts, please join us over at the Kentucky Botanists Big Year 2022 project! I'll be continuing this series over the course of the year in that project, so not only can you continue to get these comparative field botany pro-tips, you'll also have the chance to win KNPS swag (and the glory of victory) in the 2022 Botanists Big Year competition :)

In open calcareous woodlands of Kentucky, there are two relatively common native Chickweed (Stellaria) species you may encounter: Star Chickweed (Stellaria pubera) and Tennessee Starwort (Stellaria corei). They are very similar in overall appearance -- so similar that Tennessee Starwort was once considered just a variety of Star Chickweed, rather than its own species. But there is a fairly easy way to tell them apart when they're in bloom. Let's take a look!

Star Chickweed (Stellaria pubera)

(Left photo by @michaela_rogers, right close-up photo by @melanielinkperez)
Star Chickweed is a delightful spring wildflower with white, star-like flowers. In the close-up photo, check out the green calyx behind the petals. (Note: scroll down to the 4th photo here if you're not sure what the calyx is.) The sepals -- or individual leaf-like bracts that make up the calyx -- of Star Chickweed are always shorter than the petals. Now let's look at...

Tennessee Starwort (Stellaria corei)

(Left photo by @drdeforest, right close-up photo by @stephen_bucklin)
Pretty similar, huh? Once again, check out the close-up photo: look at those long, sharply pointed sepals! The sepals of Tennessee Starwort are as long as or longer than the petals. This is a diagnostic feature that you can use to distinguish between the two species.

Star Chickweed is somewhat more common throughout Kentucky than Tennessee Starwort (you can check out their county-level BONAP range maps here), but particularly for botanizers in the Bluegrass Region or Appalachian Plateau, either species could be seen on a woodland hike in spring. So if you see either and you're still not quite sure which it is, don't forget to include a good photo of the sepals in your iNat observation!

Hey folks!

A quick reminder as the KNPS Wildflower Weekend inches closer, don't forget to join the 2022 BotanyBlitz Project, which will run from April 2-April 9! Simply head to the BotanyBlitz main page and click the "Join" button in the top right corner. Thirty-seven iNatters have joined so far, and we hope to see many more!

But of course, you don't need to wait till the BotanyBlitz to make observations, wildflowers across Kentucky are already starting to show their stuff. Let's take a look at how the wildflower situation is shaping up thus far.

The first three blooming native wildflowers this year were...

Spring Beauty (Claytonia virginica) and Purple Cress (Cardamine douglassii)!

In first place, a startlingly early Spring Beauty was spotted by @gage_barnes at the Hancock Biological Station the afternoon of New Year's Eve, December 31. Although this observation technically occurred in 2021, we're counting it as a 2022 sighting since it was made a mere 9 hours prior to the new year.

In second place, another Spring Beauty was again spotted at the Hancock Biological Station, this time on January 31 by @fhincks.

And in third place, the first Purple Cress observation of the year appeared a mere two weeks later on February 15 at Floracliff Nature Sanctuary in Lexington, observed by @ky2c2t.

As the days continue to warm up, we're seeing more obervations of both Spring Beauty and Purple Cress, as well as the aptly named Harbinger of Spring (Erigenia bulbosa), a hint of Snow Trillium (Trillium nivale), Hepaticas (Hepatica acutiloba and H. americana), Bluets (Houstonia pusilla and H. caerulea), and Virginia Saxifrage (Micranthes virginiensis), as well as a variety of the usual cultivated bulbs and a host of non-native (but still cute) annual weeds. It's just a matter of time before the rest of Kentucky's spring wildflowers start to erupt out of the soil, so keep those observations coming!

Greetings, Kentucky and Kentucky-adjacent nature lovers!

If you've been tagged in this journal entry, you're an iNaturalist user who we think might be interested in joining the Kentucky Native Plant Society's 2022 Wildflower Weekend BotanyBlitz project.

What's this all about?

Although KNPS is returning to in-person events at Natural Bridge State Resort Park for this year's Wildflower Weekend celebration (more info here: https://www.knps.org/2022/02/12/wildflower-weekend-2022/), we had so much fun during last year's virtual BotanyBlitz that we're doing it again this year! From April 2-9 we are encouraging everyone to get outside and explore Kentucky's many natural areas, and share your observations with us in this iNaturalist project.

What's a BotanyBlitz?

A BotanyBlitz is a "plants-only" type of BioBlitz, which is an event where participants attempt to document as many organisms as possible within set time period and geographical location. KNPS's BotanyBlitz will be held from April 2-9, 2022, across the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

How to participate

It's easy! Just head over to the BotanyBlitz main project page here: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/knps-wildflower-week-2022-botany-blitz and click the "Join" button in the top right corner. Any observations of plants that you make in Kentucky between April 2-9 will then be automatically added to the project. At the end of the week, the results will be tallied and prizes will be given to the top five observers for "Most Species" and "Most Observations."

This is a great event for nature enthusiasts of all skill levels, and you do not need to be an expert to participate! If you're unsure how to identify a plant, just do your best -- professional botanists will be watching the observations roll in and can help you identify your plant if needed.

If you want to encourage friends or family to get involved but they're unfamiliar with iNat, check out the iNat Tutorial Hikes we'll be holding on April 2 at natural areas across the state, and see if there's a hike near you: https://www.knps.org/2022/02/12/inaturalist-tutorial-hikes/
