No Mow May gives life to rare orchid
A rare orchid has appeared on Trinity's campus as an unexpected outcome of its decision to allow wildflowers bloom in the month of May. Trinity stopped mowing several formal lawns across campus for the month of May as part of the international No Mow May initiative. This allowed wildflowers like clovers and daisies to bloom and provided food for pollinating insects, which are currently in decline.
