Presenter: Larry Weaner, FAPLD


Native design success requires a new toolbox, one containing techniques that at times are the opposite of traditional garden practice. Planting native species is the first step to ecological home landscaping. The second is to expand the area we commonly plant them, including lawn and neglected perimeter spaces. In step three we put our “Landscape Design” hats on to provide a coherent artistic overlay for this whole composition. Larry will illustrate these ecology-based techniques, from how we select and arrange plants to the simple act of weeding.
