New Delaware Riverkeeper Brochure Recommends Native Plants, Buffers
|
|
Delaware Riverkeeper Network has just released "20 Ways to Protect Streams & Streamside Properties," a new brochure that profiles 36 native plants to consider planting.
The new brochure also highlights simple actions individuals can take, like planting native plants, to protect streams. Native plants, especially native trees and shrubs are important to the watershed because they shield the ground from heavy rains and slow runoff from the land
The brochure encourages the planting of these natives using full color photos showing the selected species at their best bloom, color and growth. The images of the recommended plants included in the brochure are displayed at a minimum size of 1.5" x 3.25".
The new brochure can serve as a resource for gardeners and land managers and can also be displayed as poster. The brochure is printed on heavyweight stock and coated for durability to be long-lasting and look good hanging on your wall.
This project was financed in part by the Department of Environmental Protection’s Healthy Waters Program with funds provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
A limited number of print copies of this brochure are available, but it can be downloaded from the Delaware Riverkeeper Network's website.
