Native Plant & Insect Relationships with Morris Arboretum
May 7 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
Insects rely on plants for a variety of things, such as food, shelter, and breeding habitat. For our native insects, plant species are of particular importance as they often fill unique needs that other plants cannot.
Join us as we learn how insects and native plants interact and support each other—in both public gardens and our own backyards.
After an indoor lecture, we will move outside to explore the plants and pollinators in the gardens of Stoneleigh.
This program will take place at Stoneleigh: a natural garden.
