Staffer blooms into expert on campus flowerbeds

Matina Dixon, a computer support specialist in Information Technology Services, won Monday’s DailyNews quiz and the prize of a beautiful coffee mug emblazoned with the UWindsor logo.

Dixon’s entry was drawn at random from all those who correctly identified the flower varieties and locations pictured in these images:

Lobularia (sweet alyssum) north of the Leddy Library

Begonia outside the entrance to the Leddy Library

Helianthus (sunflower) in the student courtyard

Liatris (dense blazing star) outside Essex Hall

Verbena outside the Biology Building

Maybe she had the advantage of figuring out the pictures were taken in order during the photographer’s stroll south through the campus.

To help celebrate the University of Windsor’s 50th anniversary, DailyNews will run a contest at the beginning of each week, offering a prize donated by the University Boookstore. Today’s prize, a big ceramic coffee mug in cobalt blue, is available for purchase from the Bookstore’s kiosk in the CAW Student Centre for $9.99.
