About this Event

In this program, Special Guest, Davis Byrkit (from Wilcox Nursery) will be discussing the tried-and-true native plants that form the bedrock of an attractive , low maintenance landscape. As the interest in native plants grows, a palette of native plants has emerged as the ‘native replacement’ for common exotic plants; these native plants will be highlighted in this presentation. Additionally, Davis will be discussing some up-and-coming ‘natives’ that have been successfully used in landscapes and are increasing in availability.
