Impacts of Invasive Species on Wildlife: What Happens If We Do Nothing? (Virginia Beach, VA, from Mar 05, 2009 02:00 PM to Mar 05, 2009 02:50 PM)
50-minute talk at Project Leaders Workshop Conference for 180 USFWS biologists and project leaders
Building a Butterfly Garden (Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center on the MSU campus, from Mar 08, 2009 08:45 AM to Mar 08, 2009 09:45 AM)
Successful butterfly gardens provide both nectar sources for adult butterflies and host plants for the larval stages of butterflies. It often comes as a surprise that many butterfly host plants are native woody plant species not typically used in butterfly gardens. But to have butterflies we must make butterflies. Properly designed butterfly gardens also support a variety of beautiful moth species. Professor Tallamy will discuss these principles as well as Lepidoptera behavior and the differences between moths, butterflies and skippers.
Gardening for Life: keynote address (Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center on the MSU campus, East Lansing, MI, from Mar 09, 2009 01:15 PM to Mar 09, 2009 02:15 PM)
With as many as 33,000 species imperiled in the U.S., it is clear that we must change our approach to gardening and landscaping if we hope to share the spaces we live and work with other living things. Native plants will play a key role in the restoration of our landscapes because only natives provide the coevolved relationships required by animals. By supporting a diversity of insect herbivores, native plants provide food for a large and healthy community of natural enemies that keep herbivores in balance and our gardens aesthetically pleasing. Gardening in our crowded world carries both moral and ecological responsibilities that we can no longer ignore

Cherish our Natural Heritage: Planting Natives to Promote Biodiversity (Recreation Center, Ridgefield, CT, from Apr 25, 2009 04:00 AM to Apr 25, 2009 05:00 PM)
With as many as 33,000 species imperiled in the U.S., it is clear that we must change our approach to gardening and landscaping if we hope to share the spaces where we live and work with other living things. Native plants will play a key role in the restoration of our landscapes because only natives provide the coevolved relationships required by animals. By supporting a diversity of insect herbivores, native plants provide food for a large and healthy community of natural enemies that keep herbivores in balance and contribute to biodiversity of species. Planting native TREES, SHRUBS & PLANTS in this crowded world carries both a moral and ecological responsibility that we cannot ignore.
