July Gardening Talk

July 31, 7 - 8pm

Native Trees & Shrubs
Laurie Fox, Virginia Tech, Hampton Roads AREC
Native trees like oaks, maples, and cherries support hundreds of species of insects, but large trees aren’t right for every garden. This talk focuses on smaller native tree and shrub species appropriate for planting in smaller urban and suburban gardens and the benefits they provide.
