On February 8, 2016, we hiked down to the a strip of forest edge habitat alongside the New River and Radford Bike Path in Radford, Virginia. It was a cool, sunny day (42°F). Our team choose five different Multiflora Rose (Rosa multiflora) shrubs to study over the course of the semester. Once each team member had chosen a shrub, we attached to each rose bush both a marked piece of pink ribbon and a metal tag providing the identity of each individual shrub. On all five bushes, we noticed leaves that appeared to still be growing in size (<25% of full size). On one of our shrubs in a particularly shady spot had no breaking leaf buds compared to the other four shrubs that had few breaking leaf buds (3-10). Leaf buds are considered "breaking" when the green tip of the leaf is visible at the end of the bud. Across all shrubs we still don't have any evidence of flower buds, open flowers, or fruit.
