Native Plants as Lawn Alternatives

Oct 17, 2023

Jane Sherrott will be giving a Zoom talk on using native plants as lawn alternatives for the Lions Bay native plant garden group and MGs are most welcome to attend.

Picture a monochrome grassed area transformed into a landscape bursting with crocuses and violets in the late winter, English daisies and ajuga in the spring, strawberries and prunella in the summer, and plantains and clovers in the fall.

Learn how to increase the ecological value and enhance the beauty of a grass-only lawn by either completely replacing the grass or by integrating low (not meadowy) evergreen plants.

Jane will discuss how to choose and install attractive, easy-care plants matching a variety of garden styles that are at the same time tough enough to withstand kids and dogs.
