POLLINATOR UPDATE: Seen these around lately? This a Scoliid Wasp, a valuable predator and top pollinator which rarely stings unless stepped on. There’s no need to spray them. They are typically docile and they prey on June Bug and Japanese beetle larva by hovering across grassy areas.

Thank you Delaware Forest Service for this wonderful resource! We will be using this with our students this fall!!

🌳 It's finally here! 🌳

We're excited to announce the release of the updated Delaware Forest Service Recommended Tree List! Whether you're planting a tree in your backyard, selecting species for a community project, or planning a larger landscape, this guide is designed to help you choose the right tree for the right place.

This publication wouldn't have been possible without the hard work of our incredible Urban Forestry team.

A huge thank you to Richard Pratt, who dedicated countless hours to researching species and compiling the data that make this resource so valuable, and to Jae'lynn Combs for transforming that information into the polished, professional guide you see today.

🌱 Check out the new Recommended Tree List and let us know what tree you'll be planting next!
