2017 The Corliss Knapp Engle Scholarship in Horticulture
Natalie McMann is a master’s student in the Integrated Biosciences Graduate Program at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Her project is titled “Vascular Transport Capacity and Floral Water Use.” She aims to understand how physiological limitations may influence flowering time in woody species. Her research will examine trees and shrubs such as red maple and forsythia that flower before they leaf out to determine how the timing of plant emergence from winter dormancy affects water supply to the flowers and the relationship between floral water use and floral size.
