Growing native plants from seeds and cuttings is a great way to bring biodiversity to your garden, while saving money and connecting more deeply with nature. Stanley will share a few methods used to propagate plants at the Grassroots Ecology Native Plant Nursery and discuss ways to adapt these techniques for your home. The talk will include an iris division demonstration.
Growing up in the East Bay, Stanley became interested in botany while observing the native and non-native flora of his neighborhood. He is currently an Ecologist at Grassroots Ecology and has worked under the guidance of Nursery Director Deanna Giuliano for two years. His passions include growing native plants and sharing his love of plants with others.
