Florida-Friendly Landscaping: Planting Trees for the Suncoast

The Suncoast region lost substantial amounts of urban canopy due to Hurricane Ian, Idalia, Helene, and Milton.

As we replant our urban and residential properties, let us be mindful of what we plant. Avoid nuisance invasives and weak limbed tree and instead focus on Florida-friendly and wind resistant trees. Join this class to learn about the trees that thrive in our suncoast region, with an emphasis on keystone native trees, flowering Florida-friendly trees, and edible fruit/nut trees. Find out which tree is right for your location, how to plant it, and how to care for it. Register early through Eventbrite.com to reserve your spot and receive notice of any changes.

Please register for this event ONLY at ufsarasotaext.eventbrite.com rather than any third party websites, as they are not affiliated with our classes and events.

INSTRUCTOR: Forest Hecker, Florida-Friendly Landscaping Specialist, Sarasota County.
