Presentation by Dr. Janet Lanza, retired Professor of Biology from the University of Arkansas, Little Rock.

Invasive plants, originating from other continents, spread uncontrollably into our residential and wild environments, threatening native plant populations. This presentation will explore the impact of invasive species, methods for their safe removal, and alternative native plants to use in their place. Learn to identify the most common invasive species in Central Arkansas and discover sustainable landscaping practices to support local ecosystems.

Dr. Janet Lanza, retired Professor of Biology from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, brings her expertise in ecology, plant research, and pollinators to this discussion. She now works with Arkansas Wild Spaces, a volunteer group that helps homeowners select native plants and create wildlife-friendly landscapes.
