Native Plants for Lousy Soil


Enrichment Adult / Home -
AE 2425 Winter Spring

Do you have that patch of lousy soil where nothing seems to grow very well? There are plenty of tough MN native plants that will not only survive, but thrive in sketchy soil conditions. We will chat about all aspects of those tricky soil sites to get plants and blooms started for season to come including free soil testing. Participants will receive an informational folder full of great publications, a native plant book, and several door prizes will be given away from local plant specialists.
