Presenter: Larry Weaner, FAPLD


Selecting and arranging plants is central to - if not the heart of - fine garden design. Plant community-based design is no different; it simply uses natural vegetative models as its primary template. In this presentation, Larry will illustrate how to associate plants with their preferred environment, create plant compositions that function as integrated communities, and accommodate compositional change over time. But the word garden is not lost in this “wild” shuffle. He will conclude by revisiting fine garden design to show how an ecology-based plant palette can express, and even enhance, many different landscape styles.
