Help us celebrate WVU Arbor Day!

This wheel bug (Arilus cristatus) was found in the lawn area of the Arboretum yesterday. That "beak" is extended and used to pierce small, soft-bodied insects. The wheel bug then liquifies the contents of the other insect with enzymes and sucks the juices out of its prey.

Stop by the Arboretum today during the WVU Mountaineer Week Art Crawl from 1-4 pm to make a leaf print refrigerator magnet! We will be set up in the lawn area near the parking lot.

The WVU Chapter of the Society of American Foresters is hosting a dendrology walk on Monday, November 12th, at WVU Core Arboretum. The group will meet in the lawn area near the Arboretum parking lot at 4:00 PM. Please join us for an educational walk!

Witch hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) is blooming now at the Arboretum. Some nice specimens of this native, late-blooming shrub can be found near the bridge at the top of Taylor Trail, where it connects to Guthrie Loop Trail.

Mark your calendars for the WVU Department of Biology spring ephemeral wildflower walks and the Mountaineer Audubon spring bird walks! The wildflower walks will happen on April 7, 14, 21, and 28 at 2 pm. The bird walks will be April 23 and 30 and May 7 and 14 at 7:30 am. Free!

Harbingers of bloom! Harbinger of spring (Erigenia bulbosa) is starting to bloom and Virginia bluebells (Mertensia virginica) and other spring ephemeral leaves are up along the Sheldon Trail! Just a couple were found today, but soon there will be many!

At least one spring beauty (Claytonia virginica) was blooming today! Harbinger of spring (Erigenia bulbosa) is near peak bloom. Look for harbinger of spring near the "woodland wildflowers" sign along Nuttall Trail, and along Sheldon Trail near its intersection with Nuttall Trail.

It comes as no surprise to us that Morgantown was named one of the top 100 best places to live in the United States by Livability, and the WVU Core Arboretum was listed among the reasons why! 💛💙livability.com/best-places/to…

Trout lily (Erythronium americanum) and Dutchman’s britches (Dicentra cucullaria) have begun blooming in the Arboretum! Cutleaf toothwort (Cardamine concatenata), bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis), and spring beauty (Claytonia sp.) are starting to be numerous, but not at peak.

It's #NationalTrailsDay! Looking for a way to get outside? WVU Core Arboretum offers three miles of hiking trails. 🌳 #WVU arboretum.wvu.edu/#map
