This class will provide you with understanding on how to analyze your site, then make wise plant choices based on ornamental value, low water use, pest and disease resistance, winter hardiness, easy maintenance, wildlife-friendly, safe for children and pets, and that thrive in a variety of soil types.
The presentation includes a display of plants, demonstration of proper planting and mulching methods, and a handout with multiple lists of easy-care plants for sun, shade, dry and wet site conditions.
The presenter, Emily Bishton, is an environmental educator and landscape designer who has gardened organically for 30 years. Since 1997, she has specialized in creating wildlife-friendly and child-friendly gardens, and edible landscapes throughout the Seattle area.
During that time, Emily has also taught gardening and environmental education programs throughout the Puget Sound region, reaching a wide range of audiences from elementary school and community college students to homeowners and professional landscapers.
