This semester, the Dendrologiska Utskottet (DU) initiates a series of lectures on the theme ”Plants around the globe”! Once a month, we will arrange a lecture with an invited speaker, with focus on trees or other plants in a particular part of the world. Open for everyone!
And our first lecturer is…

Associate Professor John Rayner

In this presentation John will explore Australian trees, with an emphasis on those in natural systems and trees in the urban forest. He will look at the distribution of vegetation communities across the country; describe the main tree genera and species commonly used; and conclude with a discussion of the urban forestry movement in Australia.
