Abstract

Green is good in all plant restoration projects, but no projects are alike and all need specific approaches to achieve the desired effect. Giles will utilize his 20 years of field, lab, and greenhouse experience to suggest different rules-of-thumb to consider when working to promote the target plants' growth and persistence.
