Ground Covers – Plants That Work

December 5, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Free
  • « Weedon Island BioBlitz 2024!
  • Book Time at Brooker »

Learn about ground covers you can use in place of turfgrass.

Join Valrie Massey, Horticulture Program Assistant, as she presents how landscaping with low-growing ground cover plants has become a popular trend in landscape practices because once they are established, these plants will need little or no water. Learn noteworthy plants, site considerations, and management of these plants.

This class satisfies the landscape educational requirement for the Manatee County Outdoor Water Conservation Rebate Program.
