    Curatorial Assistant, Morris Arboretum

    From Amelanchier to Verbena, there are many great native plants you can use to enhance your garden. In this illustrated lecture and walk through the Arboretum you will learn about many good choices, the conditions they require to grow, and how to successfully work them into your landscape. Pam will focus on woody and perennial plants that provide seasonal interest with attractive flowers, fruit,
    fall color, and bark texture. She will discuss good native plant cultivars that have been bred for appealing garden traits, such as compact size and abundant flowers and fruit. Pam will also discuss adding fall color to the garden with native wildflowers. The class will include a walk through the Arboretum focusing on native plants.
