Since 2009, Texas has celebrated the third week of October as Native Plant Week.
This year, the Society is also celebrating its 40th year at the same time. We have scheduled free virtual events using Zoom for every day of the week. The first session starts at 3 pm on Sunday, October 18, and will feature Representative Donna Howard of Austin, who introduced the legislation that created Texas Native Plant Week.
Later the same day at 7 pm Sam Kieschnick, urban biologist with Texas Parks & Wildlife, will explain how to participate in our second annual Wild Plants of Texas bioblitz using a free app called iNaturalist.
Throughout the remainder of the week there will be sessions in the day and at night featuring virtual garden tours around the state and educational presentations on plants and pollinators. We will wrap up on the evening of Saturday, October 24, with announcements of our annual awards and contest winners. All the sessions are free. All you have to do is register for them and watch from the comfort of your home.
