SUMMARY:Garden Basics: Invasive Species—Not All Plants Are Created Equal
DESCRIPTION:All too often\, unsuspecting homeowners come home from a local nursery with an invasive species. Sadly\, invasives wreak havoc on our ecosystems\, denying birds and other native fauna the nutrition necessary to sustain them. Come learn why a Butterfly Bush is comparable to giving an 18-year-old junk food before running a marathon. You will learn how to recognize and eradicate the top 10 invasive species in the Piedmont region\, with a particular focus on invasives still sold in retail nurseries. And you will come away with a list of native species to plant in their place. \nSpace is limited. Registration opens March 8 and closes at 5 p.m. May 16\, 2025\, or when the class is full. Garden Basics is a partnership with the Bread and Roses ministry at Trinity Episcopal Church in Charlottesville. \nPhoto: Designed by Freepik

SUMMARY:Plant Swap at James Monroe’s Highland
DESCRIPTION:From 10 a.m. to noon Sunday\, May 18\, James Monroe’s Highland and the Piedmont Master Gardeners will host a plant swap at the historic estate. Swappers can exchange pest-free plants for a variety of other plants for summer gardens. Leftover seeds and non-native\, non-invasive plants\, including vegetables\, also can be swapped. In addition\, visitors are welcome to swap pots and garden implements. While supplies last\, there will be extra plants available for swappers to take home. A Help Desk staffed by Master Gardeners will provide tips on native alternatives to non-native plants and will show how to identify and remove invasive plants from home landscapes. James Monroe’s Highland is at 2050 James Monroe Parkway in Charlottesville.
