From keeping out the weeds to providing season-long interest, ground covers are the unsung heroes of the landscape. They play a dominant role on the forest floor and can in the garden too. This New England Wild Flower Society webinar is part of our nine-part series “Natives for any Garden” which will focus exclusively on garden plants. Join our horticultural staff for suggestions on the best native plants for any garden condition. The November 3 class is from 11 – 12, and will be led by Dan Jaffe. $10 for NEWFS members, $13 for nonmembers. Sign up at www.newfs.org.
