Please join Exhibit Coordinator, Megan Kissinger, as she highlights one of the more interesting pieces in the Edison family natural history collection. Cypress grow in the swamps along the bayous of the Southeastern U.S. As the trees mature extensions of the root system grow above the water or ground line forming a very unique shape. These root formations are known as "knees" and are a very unique material. They can be used for unique bases and stands for fish and wildlife carvings.
