Last month, Mill Creek Nature Center welcomed botanist and author Jim Drake, who visited to study one of the property's native wetland plants—arrow arum—for an upcoming Georgia Botanical Society article.

Arrow arum is often mistaken for arrowhead because both have arrow-shaped leaves. The easiest way to tell them apart? Arrowhead produces small white flowers, while arrow arum has a distinctive yellow flower spike wrapped in a green, hood-like sheath. Our Mill Creek Nature Center trails in Buford are free and open daily from sunrise to sunset—come explore Georgia's native plants for yourself! https://gwf.org/millcreek/ or link in bio
