HAVE YOU SEEN KENT STATE'S BANANA TREES?

Last Friday, a group of about 10 Kent State students received a guided tour of one of the most unique spaces on the Kent Campus – the Herrick Conservatory. It’s the large greenhouse that’s attached to the north side of Cunningham Hall.
The 5,500-square-foot facility is home to a large and diverse selection of plants, plus some fish and a couple of turtles. Highlights of the collection include a 30-year-old rubber tree and strawberry guava tree, banana trees, flowering plants and vegetables, succulents, tropical varieties and even carnivorous plants.
The tour was led by Melissa Davis, BS ‘04, MS ‘10, the horticultural facilities director since 2014, and arranged in partnership between the Center for Ecology and Natural Resource Sustainability (CENRS) and the Environmental Science and Design Research Institute (ESDRI).
The ESDRI Fellows
Michelle Escalambre, MA ‘20, a special assistant at ESDRI, explained that the institute sponsors an undergraduate fellows' program, and this tour was designed to help introduce the conservatory to this year’s class of fellows and any other students interested in environmental science. “Because we’ve been off-campus for the past two years because of the pandemic, this will be the first time that any of these students, especially the undergrads, are going to be in the greenhouse,” Escalambre said.
