Rob Paratley Roots: Social Network of Plants and Fungi—Just what is going on below the ground
April 3, 2025 6:30 pm
St. Michael’s Church 2025 Bellefonte Drive, Lexington KY 40503
We think of roots probing the soil for water and minerals at a distance from the center of the plant. However, far more is taking place unseen by us. Uncover a fuller understanding of how roots function and cooperate with other plants.
Rob Paratley has retired from the University of Kentucky but still teaches public programs through the UK Arboretum, Floracliff Nature Sanctuary, Lexington Tree Week, and other venues.
Future Planned Events
May 1, 2025 Return of the very popular Plant Exchange.
