Some planting sites challenge even experienced landscapers with heat, drought, flooding, or poor soils, leaving these areas as eyesores or difficult-to-manage spaces. In this one-hour session, Bureau of Forestry Service Forester Steven Laskowski and Penn State Extension’s Scott Sjolander will explore both familiar and lesser-known woody plant solutions for Pennsylvania’s varied environmental contexts. Participants will gain practical strategies for selecting and establishing trees that thrive in tough sites, thinking creatively to enhance tree cover across diverse landscapes.
