June 17 via Zoom: Plants with Purpose author talk, Lindheimer NPSOT chapter

Can you eat it? Make tea from it? Does it serve wildlife? Does it taste good or provide a health benefit? Is it low maintenance? Does it have a fun story? Does it provide a unique landscape service? Oh, and is it attractive?

These are the questions I asked of each plant upon assembling my new book Plants with Purpose: Twenty-five Ecosystem Multitaskers. To qualify, the plant had to answer YES to at least three besides attractiveness. Beauty alone is no longer reason enough to choose a plant that will occupy valuable real estate in your landscape. We owe functional plants–plants that do more than look good–to the ecosystem.

Join us for a presentation/discussion about choosing plants that go beyond beauty for our landscapes.

Come join us via Zoom! Or, join others at the Tye Preston Memorial Library in Brenham.
