Kansas Roots was born out of a desire to pull all of our K-State recommended plant lists together in one, beautiful, searchable, mobile place. Even if you have expertise in one area of plants, it can still be challenging to research and make the best choices in other areas. The K-State print publications are wonderful resources, but can be cumbersome to find, print, study and carry into a retail store in order to compare recommendations with availability. This website solves that problem and enhances learning with additional information regarding integrated pest management. We'll help you know what to plant, where to plant it and how to treat common problems that might arise.
