Public Welcome Program/Speaker Presentation

Non-native invasive plants, like Japanese barberry and English ivy, damage our environment by invading natural areas and out-competing native plants. To help stop the spread, the Delaware state legislature recently passed a law that will ban the sale of 37 invasive plant species, beginning July 2022. Join Leah Brooks as she presents native alternatives to invasive ornamentals and explains how making these substitutions helps protect our ecosystems. A garden walk to view recommended plants is included. $29  Register
