Plants for Landscaping


Note the "Location" of each section, as we may have in-person and blended options. Confirmation emails contain specific class instructions.
Choose the right plant for the right place, based on site-specific design and maintenance criteria. Learn landscape values such as size, texture, color, and flowering and fruiting seasons. Review trees, shrubs, groundcovers, annuals, and perennials suitable for this region. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
