- **Event Description**: The Native Plant Series is brought to the community by Victoria Bogatz, Nebraska Youth Poet Laureate and Bellevue East High School Senior.  The Nebraska Writers Collective provided her the resources and support to create a civic engagement project.

Green Bellevue is thrilled with the initiative and subject matter chosen, given our community has hundreds of native plant gardeners, many have just begun in the past year.  

On March 14th at 11 am: Hear from Bob Hendrickson, Horticulture Program Coordinator at PlantNebraska, on Outstanding Native Shrubs for Nebraska Landscapes

Learn about a variety of shrubs that are native to Nebraska and how to use them in your landscape. Native shrubs are very important in the natural environment—providing shelter and food for a variety of animals and birds. As a design element, shrubs provide medium height in a garden and help blend the differences between shade trees, herbaceous plants and grass lawns. Shrubs can be used to define boundaries, create paths and provide seclusion without the stark presence of a fence or wall.

Bob attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and graduated with a B.S. in Wildlife Biology in the School of Natural Resources. Currently, Bob is the Horticulture Program Coordinator with the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum, Inc., a private, non-profit organization and program of the Nebraska Forest Service. His responsibilities include assisting affiliated arboretum sites with plant collection development and to acquire, propagate and produce native and exotic plants for plant sales to our members and the public. A Nebraska Certified Nurseryman and a Certified Arborist with the International
Society of Arboriculture. Bob has hosted a live, call-in gardening talk show called How’s it Growin’ on a community radio station in Lincoln since 2000. He is passionate about native plants, herbs, dried flowers, vegetable gardening, wild mushrooms and wild edible plants.
