SUMMARY:Plant This\, Not That!
DESCRIPTION:Plant This\, Not That!\nAlternatives to Common Invasive Plants \nInvasive plants are non-native plants that have been introduced to the state (either intentionally or unintentionally) and have the potential to cause harm to the environment\, economy\, or human health. These plants often outcompete native species\, disrupting natural ecosystems and causing various problems. \nMany common landscape plants in central Florida are actually invasive species that are shared between unknowing home gardeners and sold commercially (because they may not be a problem elsewhere)\, adding to their spread. \nCome and learn about these common invasive plant species to avoid\, and which species should be used in your home landscape instead! \n\n>> GET TICKETS  GET TICKETS
