It is a must-attend webinar for all landscape architects who wish to design sites that improve with time. Whether your priority is performance driven outcomes like stronger pest regulation and lower ongoing inputs\, or you are genuinely trying to reconnect fragmented wildlife corridors to support at-risk fauna\, plant specification decisions carry weight. Some plants are nectar factories. Some are pollen providers. Others support frugivorous birds or provide shelter and breeding habitat. \nThe webinar’s speaker\, Daniel Fuller\, is Ozbreed’s resident horticulture expert\, bringing more than a decade of personal experience leading commercial and private landscape maintenance projects both in VIC and QLD\, as well as over 6 years’ experience researching\, writing\, and creating educational content for the horticulture industry. Daniel’s approach revolves around stacking landscape and ecological functions while reducing maintenance through the power of right plant\, right place\, with information backed by over a decade’s worth of Ozbreed trials and research. Daniel provides free online planting & horticulture consultations for specifiers through Ozbreed\, who are eligible for either formal or informal CPD points through AILA. \nAttendees can expect to understand the following concepts by the end of the presentation: \n\nSuccession\, and how the dimension of time impacts landscape ecology throughout the seasons and the decades.\nCategorising ecological relationships through pattern recognition\, e.g. pollen\, nectar\, seeds\, fruits\, and more.\nHighlighting keystone Australian species and genera that provide disproportionate ecological function.\n\n  \nWhen you understand what each plant is actually offering\, you can assemble meaningful guilds that regulate themselves better between maintenance visits. That means your designs can expect to support more wildlife\, experience less plant failures\, and generally remain more attractive with less work. \nThe session will be recorded and emailed out to all registrants 48 hours after the event. \n  \n  URL:https://greenlifeindustryqld.org.au/event/designing-urban-ecosystems-with-australian-plants-webinar/ LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
