SUMMARY:Goldenrods and Asters: Autumn’s Superstars
DESCRIPTION:Join us in collaboration with Morris Arboretum to learn how goldenrods and asters can add beauty and biodiversity to any property. After an indoor lecture\, we will move out into Stoneleigh’s gardens to explore the plants and their pollinators in the landscape. \n With their stunning flowers\, goldenrods and asters are two of the hallmark plants of autumn. Not only are they beautiful\, but these plants also support hundreds of insects\, from bees and wasps to caterpillars and butterflies. This late-summer pairing offers crucial support to native insects\, and blooms after many other species have already flowered\, providing both beauty and wildlife resources all the way through the fall. \n Stoneleigh’s Engagement Manager Samantha Nestory\, will lead this program. Sam holds ecology and entomology degrees from the University of Delaware and is passionate about ecological gardening\, native plants\, and insect conservation. \n Please visit the Morris Arboretum website to register. Find this workshop listed under the “Horticulture & Design” category of courses. \n \n register now
