Mikesell phenological data from Wauseon, Ohio, USA, 1883-1912

First leaf and first bloom dates from Wauseon, Ohio recorded by Thomas Mikesell from 1883-1912 for 26 tree species. These data were published in Smith 1915 and have been used in a number of phenology comparison studies (Hunter & Lechowicz 1992; Morin et al. 2009).
