The Baton Rouge Audubon Society's September program features Janine Kharey, founding president of Wild Ones of Greater Baton Rouge. Janine’s program will focus on the fascinating world of native plants and their crucial role in supporting pollinator biodiversity in planned gardens. This program delves into the intricate relationships between specific native plants and the diverse pollinators they attract, including hoverflies, beetles, bees, moths, and butterflies. You'll learn about the unique characteristics of different pollinator groups and the specific plants and design elements that cater to their needs.
