Greenhouse Guidelines


*All greenhouse use must be coordinated with the greenhouse manager (Bill Pinder) (bpinder1 @swarthmore.edu) His hours are 10-2 every day and his phone # is 610- 328-8563.


*All plant material in the greenhouse must be labeled with species name and the name of the student or professor doing the research.


*The potting shed must be cleaned up after every use.


*Do not touch or interfere in any way with anyone else's research.


*Table space and time restrictions must be observed.


*No smoking in the greenhouse or potting shed.


(Due to limited space and the danger of introducing disease, the greenhouse cannot house orphaned dorm plants.)
