There are good reasons to create wetlands in places where most people don’t expect them--in cities. Learn what natural benefits wetlands can provide to our built environment. We’ll have a virtual tour of some of Houston’s best urban and suburban wetlands in campuses, parks, roadways and neighborhoods. Best of all, meet the beautiful and fascinating native plants that thrive in them!
Mary Carol is a farmer of native wetland plants, and recently founded Green Star Wetland Plant Farm to provide material for conservation, mitigation, water quality, and landscape projects. This talk was delivered at the August 15, 2019, chapter meeting of the Native Plant Society Houston.
