Native Grasses for Your Garden

Thursday, September 15, 7:00 – 8:30 pm

Presented by Tom Smarr, Executive Director, Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens

Grasses are not just in the lawn or a green tuft along the roadside. Grasses are an important part of the ecological structure of many plant communities, plus provide aesthetic interest in the garden. There are a wide variety of native species that grow in a spectrum of conditions with a diversity of shapes, colors, and growth habits. Join Tom Smarr to learn more about great species, selection, and design combinations of how to use native grasses in your own garden.

Free of charge; registration is required.

This lecture is also part of our monthly Third Thursday Lecture Series. All lectures will be held virtually and a link will be emailed to registered participants prior to each program date.
