Plant Survey

Mason students conduct a plant survey in Loudoun County Gilberts Corner to collect and identify plant species as part of a formal survey of vegetation in the seven-acre wetlands-preserve area of the Piedmont Environmental Council-owned property. The study is led by Andrea Weeks, PhD, an associate professor and director of Mason’s Ted R. Bradley Herbarium, as part of a long-term floristic study sponsored by a grant from the Virginia Native Plant Society and conducted in partnership with the Piedmont Environmental Council and the herbarium.
