MADOO IN MANHATTAN

Addressing climate change is one of the most pressing needs in the horticultural world today. As one of the global leaders in this research Cassian Schmidt will discuss the ecological and aesthetic potential of native and non-native dry habitat plant communities from the North American prairie as well as Eastern European steppe vegetation and the Mediterranean shrub steppe “garrigue.’’ The increased use of plants from these drier areas in beautiful and resilient urban environments and residential gardens is a feature of Cassian’s garden design. Cassian will demonstrate that with modifications and enhancements for aesthetic and practical demands, natural models can provide a great palette for planting design.
