Living Mulch: Tips for an Eco-Smart Garden
Tuesday, September 20, 6:30 – 7:30 pm
Location: GoToWebinar
Instructor: Kaitlyn O’Connor, Plant Ecologist at ISG
During this presentation, you’ll learn more about native plants used as living mulches, including benefits, species selection, implementation, and potential challenges.
“Living mulch,” also known as green mulch, uses plants to fill spaces between other plants. These plants are usually short, spreading ground cover that occupy the lowest herbaceous niche in a garden, a place that is often occupied by abiotic (wood, rock) mulches in more traditional garden design.
