Picking of tafidfiowtrs Hdt pants not strniiiiii" endangers the specues So my. Mt m M ‘- It is good that we have our parks and natural areas but opportunities to see a wildflower blooming in lone- ly lovelineu are diminish- ing so rapidly that we must curb our impulse to pick and destroy when we are priv- ileged to encounter them. The white trillium - pro- vincial flower of Ontario - should never be picked. The bulb of this plant needs its green leaves to manufacture food for next year's bloom. Picking the plant stops this function, resulting in its disappearance. According to the Federa- tion of Ontario Naturalists. wild orchids, such as the lady’s-slippers, should be left where they grow. Or- chids take many years to flower from seed. Picking them means that they can- not seed, and future colonies suffer. Peeling bark from a birch tree leaves an unsightly scar and retards the transporta- tion of nutrients between roots and leaves. A birch tree can manufacture its bark only once. The lovely blue gentians. if picked, cannot set seed and, as in the case of the or- chids, this results in di- minished colonies of this plant. Transplanting wildflowers to a location foreign to where they are growing is the surest way to destroy them.

According to campaign chairman R.H. Denison re- ceipts to date show that $63,900.07 has been donated. This exceeds the 1971 ob- jective by $980.07. The fact was announced recently at a board of dir- ectors meeting of the Unit. The North Waterloo Unit is a member of the K-w Fed- erated Appeal where most of its 1971 campaign oNec- tive was received.
