Natural History Wanderings

from the California Native Plant Society

Shelter-in-place seems to be triggering a gardening boom, and native plants offer endless possibilities. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, new plants, or how-to advice, we’ve got you covered. Here are four ways to indulge the gardening bug this week:

1. Attend a live virtual garden tour this Sunday with ecologist Doug Tallamy and CNPS Executive Director Dan Gluesenkamp.
2. Check out CNPS chapter garden tour photo galleries.
3. Order from a native plant nursery near you. Many are offering online sales, pre-orders, and no-contact pick-ups.
4. Start the transition from turf to natives with these seven steps.
