Margaret H. Fulford Herbarium - CINC, University of Cincinnati

12/30/2025

2025 has been a momentous year for CINC - we finished moving into our beautiful, newly renovated home! Although we never fully closed, parts of the collection were inaccessible, but we’re back in business now thanks to the tireless efforts of collections manager, Olivia Leek, and our super team of undergraduate student workers and volunteers. A huge thanks to all of you who have helped us move forward!

UC's Margaret H. Fulford Herbarium moved from Crosley Tower to Rieveschl Hall with support from the National Science Foundation. UC has Ohio's third-largest collections of plant specimens from around the world.

For this weeks specimen spotlight we have Pyrus calleryana also known as Bradford Pear!

These trees are invasive to the U.S. and originally came from China and Vietnam!
It is now banned for sale in Ohio and several other states.

Spring has come early in Ohio so you may see these trees blooming!

Today we had our monthly Herbarium meeting for February!

We participated in trivia about general Herbaria, The Margaret H. Fulford Herbarium, and our collectors!

Can you figure out who the collector is in the last slide?
