SUMMARY:Tallamy and Weaner: A Season by Season Guide to Plant-Wildlife Connections (Fall Virtual Series)
DESCRIPTION:To support native birds and pollinators you need native plants. For those plants to thrive\, you need to know how to plant\, arrange\, and manage them. And to optimize the wildlife benefits\, those plants must provide habitat throughout the year. In this presentation\, entomologist & wildlife ecologist Doug Tallamy and landscape designer Larry Weaner will illustrate an all too rare\, integrated approach to habitat creation on residential properties. In an alternating series of presentations\, they will connect plants\, wildlife\, and their specific seasonal needs to illustrate the dynamic landscapes that this integrated approach can provide. They will conclude by comparing notes on their personal experience\, interacting with plants and wildlife on their respective home landscapes.
