Kudos to Stetson University
This old and beautiful 174-acre university in Deland is going "native!" The Stetson University's Native Plant Initiative is slowly, but surely transforming the flora on campus into native species. Their Web site includes lists (with plant requirements) of the native palms, trees, shrubs, wildflowers, vines and groundcovers they are planting. Also, is a list of references and links, plus a slide show of 10 landscape photos. Check it out, and see for yourself what a beautiful job they are doing. Hopefully, more universities, homes, shopping centers and office complexes will follow their example. Great Job!

Hi Susan,
I was having fun looking through your various blogs. Have you seen www.gardenrant.com? There was a post recently about bringing together regional sources for gardeners. You might want to get in touch with them, since you have done much of this work for Florida.
