Create Beautiful Containers and Mini-habitats too… With Native Plants!

Gardeners with planting space limited to patios, decks, or balconies can still create miniature habitats for pollinators and birds by incorporating native plants. Join Extension Master Gardener Elaine Mills for an in-person presentation about which plant species are suitable for use in containers while providing the best wildlife support. She will offer tips on containers, soil, and plant maintenance and illustrate a wide variety of attractive plant combinations, using ferns, grasses, sedges, perennials, and even small shrubs. The presentation will be in the Small Space Garden at the back of the Fairlington Community Center.
