SF Bay Nature Talk: Sea Lavender Invasion + Wetland Solutions (CNPS Yerba Buena)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

First discovered in 2006 near the San Francisco Airport, invasive Limonium or Algerian Sea Lavender has been a problem around San Francisco Bay.  There is a native Limonium, California Sea Lavender.  The invasive species can dominate wetland areas.  Learn about both the native and non-native sea lavenders, the research, and on the ground work that has been done here in San Francisco Bay.

Drew Kerr began his career as a wetland ecologist in Seattle, working with Pacific Northwest amphibian conservation and research and as the Aquatic Noxious Weed Specialist for King County DNR. Since 2005 he has been focused on the invasive plants of the tidal marshes and mudflats of the San Francisco Estuary.
