This session will explore how native species can be used to meet both ecological and design objectives while reducing long-term maintenance and resource inputs. Whether addressing plant failure\, overgrowth\, or planning site enhancements\, this webinar will provide practical strategies for selecting and siting native plants that support biodiversity and perform reliably in the landscape. Topics will include an overview of Maine’s native plant communities\, best practices for plant selection and site assessment\, and design approaches for achieving a clean\, professional aesthetic. \nRegister Online: Transitioning to Native Plants in the Landscape or Garden \nRegistration is required; sliding scale fee options are available. For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation\, contact Rebecca Gray at 207.356.1348 or extension.gardening@maine.edu. \nAbout the Speaker\nCathy Rees has worked for more than 25 years creating and maintaining gardens while doing ecological consulting for a range of clients. Her familiarity with the native flora inspires her creative use of natives in the garden. The need to educate others about their native flora\, its beauty\, mystery\, and benefit to the ecosystem led her to cofound Native Gardens of Blue Hill in 2015. She holds a BS in environmental design and planning and an MS in ecology. She is a certified National Green Infrastructure Practitioner. She is the author of “Winterland: Creating a beautiful garden for every season\,” which focuses on garden design that can be enjoyed beyond the growing season. \n  URL:/calendar/event/commercial-horticulture-webinar-series-transitioning-to-native-plants-in-the-landscape-or-garden/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Online Events ORGANIZER;CN="91±¬ÁĎ Cooperative Extension":MAILTO:extension@maine.edu LOCATION:/calendar/event/commercial-horticulture-webinar-series-transitioning-to-native-plants-in-the-landscape-or-garden/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
