Planting a Foundation for Backyard Diversity and Wildlife Habitat

4747 Bob Wallace Avenue, Huntsville, AL 35805

Trees and shrubs can provide many benefits in your home landscape. We will discuss how to select a variety of woody plants that can form a foundation for your backyard ecosystem. Learn some tips for planting several different stock types, and how proper maintenance will result in well-established and healthy plants. Included will be some examples of native trees and shrubs that can attract songbirds and other small wildlife to your backyard habitat.

If the weather allows after the classroom discussion, we will take a short walk in the Garden to view some examples.
