Landscaping for a Healthy Lake
This is the handout from the June 17, 2017 Rain Garden Clinic with information, links, and downloads for plant selections, meadow and low-mow grass seed sources, neonicotinoids, invasive weeds, soil test, and lists of plants, small trees, ornamental grasses, shrubs in and around riparian environments, ferns and sedges. Lots of information, worth checking out.
Wondering where you can buy native plants and get great help in the selection process? See this list of plant, tree and shrub sources.
