6 2018 Gateway Green Industry Conference Class Descriptions SESSION I - 8:00-9:00 AM A. Perennial Stars on the Horizon Martha Smith What new perennials will we be seeing in the coming season? What plants are breeders really excited to show off to the gardening world? After attending horticulture trade shows and talking with plant breeders and plant buyers, Martha Smith, University of Illinois will share what she has seen and heard. Martha will also include the latest trial garden results and what is showing great promise for Illinois gardens in B. Underutilized Native Trees for Landscaping - Chris Evans Native species provide additional benefits that most introduced species cannot. While natives are becoming more and more popular, there are a lot of native tree species that are being underutilized. This presentation will discuss how to move beyond redbuds and dogwoods when incorporating native trees into your landscaping. We will also talk about how enhancing diversity in landscaping trees not only benefits native wildlife but can build resiliency to resistant pest outbreaks like emerald ash borer. SESSION II - 9:00-10:00 AM C. Fifty Shapes of Shade - Martha Smith Trees and shrubs come in a wide array of shapes. Have you ever thought of how those shapes can be used in the landscape to their best advantage? Columnar or weeping or rounded? Not only their summer forms and shade cast but their winter silhouette? Martha Smith, Horticulture Educator, will share some of her favorite shapes and how to use them in the landscape. D. Successful Nursery Stock Transplanting - Mark Grueber & Daniel Moncheski This session will focus on the types of woody plant stock that are commonly available and what to look for to ensure that the plants you purchase have the best chance for surviving the transplanting process. best chance for surviving the transplanting process. E. Invasive Plants and Human Health - Chris Evans Most everyone has a clear understanding of the damage invasive plants can have on the health of an ecosystem, but these invaders can also impact human health. Some invasive plants are highly poisonous, others alter the environment to make it more hazardous, and others drastically increase the prevalence of tick borne diseases. This presentation will cover a handful of invasive plants that impact human health and discuss ways to mitigate those risks. SESSION III - 10:00-11:00 AM F. Practical Pond Management - David Shiley Pond management starts by determining the goals or uses of the pond, followed by practices to achieve those goals. Understand how cycles within the pond impact management, vegetation, and fish populations. Challenges for management of retention basins will also be addressed. G. Tree Care and Urban Soils - Ryan Pankau Ryan Pankau, who has 20 years of experience as an arborist and forester will highlight some of the challenges to tree care in the urban environment by exploring the attributes of urban soils in contrast to undisturbed forest soils. Many common impacts to tree health can be related back to the level of disturbance in our urban soils. Ryan will discuss diagnosis of abiotic tree stresses related to soil problems. He will also cover current tree care techniques to address these problems, such as amendments to include soil biota found in forest soils but typically absent in our urban soils. This session will also cover practical ways to assess urban soil health as well as methods for troubleshooting soil issues when tree health starts to decline. H. Landscaping Fact or Fiction - Chris Enroth With our ever-expanding technology and connectedness, we have more information readily available than any human society in history. In our swirling whirlpool of digital communications, it can be hard to tell what is fact and what is fiction. Join University of Illinois Extension Chris Enroth, as we dispel landscaping myths of products, trends, and management strategies and get to the science of gardening. SESSION IV - 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM I. Establishing Patches of Habitat for Native Pollinators Erin Shank Landscaping in urban areas can have a significant impact on the survival of native pollinators. The City of St. Louis, for example, has a vast diversity and abundance of native bee species, a discovery which has been a surprise to many in the conservation field. Within St. Louis, however, bee diversity varies greatly from one neighborhood to another, largely due to the forage quality of the surrounding landscape. From small plantings in parks, to back yards, to corporate campuses, land management practices can directly and dramatically impact native bee populations. The public s awareness of the importance and population declines of pollinators is growing, and demand for bee-friendly landscape practices will hopefully rise in response. Come learn about native Midwest bees and some simple but significant landscape practices you can employ to aid bee conservation and satisfy clients aesthetic demands.
7 2018 Gateway Green Industry Conference Class Descriptions SESSION IV - 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM Continued J. Weedy Vines - Rhonda Ferree Poison ivy, oriental bittersweet, and trumpet creeper are just a few of the many vine weeds that can be quite aggressive and especially difficult to manage. This session provides tips for identifying and managing common weedy vines in your garden and landscape. K. Going Organic: Are Organic Pesticides Safer than their Synthetic Counterparts? - Chris Enroth Statistics show home landscapes receive three times more pesticides per acre than commercial agriculture production. Some government agencies estimate that number to be even higher. Though not quite ready to ditch the bug and weed killers, clients are seeking alternatives to conventional pesticides. Many are turning to organic pesticides due to their growing market and perception that these pesticides are safer. But are organic pesticides safer? Join University of Illinois Extension Chris Enroth, as he sheds some light on the debate of organic vs. synthetic. LUNCH ON YOUR OWN SESSION V - 1:00-2:00 PM L. Pollinators and Landscapers - Kelly Allsup Horticulture Educato, Kelly Allsup, will speak on the ever trending pollinator plant garden. Whether your client enjoys the blooming flowers or eating fruits and vegetables, encouraging pollinators to the landscape is a win-win for the client and the environment. Learn about the ornamental value of native plants, procuring native plants and pollinators that will inhabit the garden once established. M. Emerging and Exotic Diseases in Trees and Ornamentals - Diane Plewa A number of emerging and exotic diseases have either been confirmed in Illinois in the past few years or appear to be increasing in prevalence. Diane will discuss symptoms, management recommendations, and current spread of boxwood blight, bur oak blight, thousand cankers disease, and more. SESSION V - 1:00-2:00 PM Continued N. Pruning Techniques for Small Trees and Shrubs - Ryan Pankau Proper pruning techniques are often overlooked when pruning small ornamental trees and shrubs. Educator, Ryan Pankau, will review horticulturally correct pruning techniques for small trees and shrubs. Lawn care professionals, landscapers and other green industry businesses often have opportunity to perform this type of work for existing clients. In this session, learn how to apply pruning techniques that ensure plant health and provide aesthetically pleasing plant specimens. When combined with existing plant knowledge that many of these professionals already have, pruning treatments are easily applied with some practice and patience. These services can then be valuable products for clients and your business. SESSION VI - 2:00-3:00 PM O. The Art of Combining Native Perennials - Scott Woodbury Success with native perennials in the garden comes with choosing the right plant for the right location. It also depends on how you creatively combine them to best emphasize color, texture, form and size. These are the visual elements, the tricks of the trade, that make gardens attractive to people. P. Top Ten Illinois Tree Pests: What s Bugging that Tree? Kelly Allsup Kelly Allsup, will address the most likely insect culprits of tree decline. The University receives an extensive amount of questions regarding tree health, including the not so simple question, "what is wrong with my tree?" During this session, Kelly will teach the telltale signs and symptoms exhibited, treatment recommendations and tips on how to get in front of these pest issues before damage occurs. Q. Compost Recipe Development and Odor Management - Duane Friend This presentation will discuss developing the right mix of feedstocks available to make your compost the best it can be, and considerations for keeping the stink out of your compost piles.
