Learn how to avoid this by introducing the smaller gems of the plant world into your garden, such as native groundcovers, dwarf conifers, and more.

    $5 suggested donation for the public.  Jen Kettell is a certified arborist, horticulturist, and lecturer and trainer at the University of Massachusetts and at the Arnold Arboretum at Harvard University.
