and Landscape Design History from Radcliffe College, Harvard
University and will be speaking.
In her Hanover lecture, Stella will discuss how a sustainable
landscape can address present resident needs without adversely
impacting the ability of future residents to meet new and changing
needs. Addressing environmental awareness, Stella will highlight
innovative ways to use plant material to clean air, soil and water and
to restore our ecological systems. Topics include dry gardening, plant
buffer zones, the lawn, and invasive species. New directions in water
management concentrate on the permeable ground plane, mulches and
natural swimming pools without chemicals. Heirloom and unusual
varieties of herbs, vegetables, fruits and flowers bind us to our
past; Stella will discuss why it is important to preserve the full
range of genetic possibilities of such plants for the future. To
