This presentation is hosted by the Conradina Chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society. It is a part of a larger series “Using Florida Native Plants in Landscapes“
Florida’s unique climate and growing conditions allow for a huge variety of exotic plants to thrive. While some are well behaved in the home landscape, many garden favorites are actually invasive species. These “invaders” pose a threat to our native plants and natural ecosystems.
In this presentation, Florida Wildflower Foundation Executive Director Stacey Matrazzo will go over some of the invasive species commonly used in home landscapes, and offer suggestions for suitable native plants to use in their place.
