Description

Move beyond boring, look-alike landscape plantings of Japanese barberry, burning bush, and Bradford pear. Substitute these invasive plants with native trees, shrubs, and perennials that feature multi-seasonal interest, support songbirds, and provide wildlife habitat. With the knowledge gained in this class, transform your landscape from an ecological desert to a beautiful, bountiful oasis, one plant at a time.
