About
I am a graduate student in the Horticulture Department at Oregon State University, studying the attractiveness of native wildflowers to pollinators and natural enemies -- especially flowers with aesthetic value. This information has the potential to inform deliberate plantings that increase the habitat value of home gardens, parks, roadsides, and even agricultural areas. This fits into my advisor's, Dr. Gail Langellotto, ongoing work in garden ecology. More information on our lab's on-goings can be found here: http://blogs.oregonstate.edu/gardenecologylab/
