THIS MONTH'S PRESENTATION: Plants out of place are a problem in all regions of the world and can threaten local ecosystems. Bill Moll will frame the issues regarding invasive plants in Tennessee. This will be followed by a discussion of specific species - how to identify them, ways to manage them and suitable alternative species.

Bill Moll has rescued his 3.2 acre property from privet, Japanese honeysuckle, English ivy, nandina and other invasive plants. In his spare time, he has worked on programs and Symposiums for the Tennessee Valley Wild Ones and is on the Tennessee Invasive Plant Council Board.

This FREE meeting is open to the public.
