Attendees will learn about what to consider at the site when selecting tree species, features of native trees, how to protect existing trees during construction and learn the correct planting procedures that can determine the trees long term health and increase the tree’s ability to become established sooner.

Did you know trees, plants and shrubs imported into the United States can have harmful hitchhikers, such as beetles buried in the wood of a sapling, or tiny mites on the leaves of a flowering plant. Learn more about how you can help prevent the spread of invasive insects and diseases at http://www.plantsmart.org/index.php.
