The Ultimate Cover-Up! Choosing the right Ground Covers.

Ground cover plants are all around problem solvers; they are great for adding color, preventing weeds, controlling erosion and providing habitat for pollinators. While grass is typically the best way to fill out empty space, sometimes low growing plants are better, and a prettier, option. Join Whiteside County Master Gardeners and discover some unique ways to dress up your landscape. The ultimate cover up! Choosing the right ground cover will take place at the Whiteside County Extension office, 12923 Lawrence Rd., Sterling at 10AM on April 9, 2022. You must be registered to attend, register online at; go.illinois.edu/whitesidesaturdays or by calling the Whiteside County Extension office at (815) 632-3611. Registration is limited to 25 participants. Saturdays with a Master Gardener Join Whiteside County Master Gardeners throughout the year and explore the world of gardening!
