Presenter: Larry Weaner


An old horticultural adage, “You don’t really know a plant until you’ve killed it,” suggests that gardeners can learn as much from their mistakes as their successes. In 1982, when Larry founded his landscape design-build firm, little practical guidance was available for translating landscape ecology into designed environments. Consequently, the need to experiment was instrumental in developing some of the protocols that guide his practice today. But as is the way with experiments, not all yielded the expected result. In this session Larry will show how these wayward experiments led to more effective protocols. His presentation will help attendees to skip over the “experimental” and proceed directly to the “proven.” He will also illustrate how to insert small experiments into landscape projects, allowing the learning process to continue indefinitely.
