LP055: New- A Pillar of Salt - and Plants that Tolerate It
This half-day seminar covers the importance and variety of plants available for design use in salt exposed areas.

Many plantings fail because of salt exposure; this seminar will help participants make wiser choices when designing their landscapes in these areas.
Also covering:
*Designing and planting for roadsides, parks, and other salty conditions
*With boulevard gardens gaining ground but slip and fall insurance claims on the rise, choosing plants that can tolerate salt is of particular interest to gardeners and municipalities alike
*Restrictions on boulevard gardens will be discussed
