Bringing Nature Home Meadows of Northeast Ohio: Openings in the Forest with Dave Tomashefski of Meadow City Nurseries Saturday, April 11 10am- noon In person at the Cleveland Heights Community Center (1 Monticello Blvd.) Register at https://buff.ly/fpvJK5z When European settlers first arrived in Ohio, they found a land that was 98% forested and rich in wetlands. Gardeners of today know, however, that a number of our native flowers and grasses prefer sunny, drier conditions. These include meadow species like little bluestem and nodding wild onion. What were the natural factors that allowed these plants to colonize our area and persist to the present day? This presentation will examine meadow communities of northeast Ohio, with an emphasis on their origin, characteristic plant species, an ecological significance. Presented by Friends of Heights Parks & Cleveland Heights Department of Parks & Recreation
