Objective: to gain a working knowledge of the native plants around us and how they can be used in the landscape
Level: beginner to intermediate
Prerequisite: None
It’s the 25th anniversary of this class that celebrates the beauty of the native plants that surround us. We’ll look at the origins of our flora and use a plant community model to get to know and then grow them in our landscapes. As you move beyond pollinators and Monarchs, your hikes and bike trail rides will take on new meaning and your garden will reflect this journey. Ecological Gardening and Landscape and Garden Design certificate elective. Approved for 6 CEUs for PCH and SLC by PLNA. Approved for 6.0 CEUs for landscape architects by LA CES.
