Previous TLE Presentations2017 – The Art and Science of Creating Meadows and Grass EcologiesNever before in the history of American Horticulture has there been as many kinds of grasses and grass-like plants in cultivation. This ever expanding interest in creating grass ecologies and the growing knowledge of how to do it right, is leading to what I call the Meadow Revolution. This lecture will explore the relatively new art and science of designing, planting, and maintaining meadows and natural lawns. The talk will feature examples of successful meadow plantings from around the country and look at the future of grasses in both ecology and horticulture.
