Whether you’re thinking of adding just a few native plants or you’re ready for a total landscape transformation, this workshop is designed with you in mind. Our presentation is appropriate for gardeners new to growing native plants as well as for more experienced enthusiasts. The workshop will focus on:
- Various reasons for using native plants.
- Site elements that are important to know before you start - landscape design concepts will be discussed which will help in the success of native gardening projects.
- We’ll explore methods for finding the right native plants for your project, with special focus on pollinator plants and local natives; we'll share a number of photos of popular native plants and examples of native gardens.
- Presenters are also members of the local chapter of the California Native Plant Society so there will be an opportunity for questions.
