What is a \u201cnative plant\u201d and why should you add them to your landscape?\u00a0\u00a0Native plants support bugs, birds, butterflies and other wildlife, and don\u2019t need watering (once established), fertilizer, or pesticides. Not sure how or where to start?\u00a0\u00a0Needham resident Joanne Neale, the owner of Garden MentorSM landscape design and consulting, will talk to us about the benefits of native plants, how to prepare a bed, and show us slides of suggested natives.\u00a0\u00a0Joanne\u2019s gardening philosophy is based on low maintenance, sustainability, and organic methods, with an emphasis on native plants.\u00a0\u00a0She has published articles on gardening, teaches at Needham Community Education, and is a member of Green Needham and many other environmental and horticultural organizations.<\/p>\n
