LLHG 509 - Xeriscape by Design

Did you pour a lot of water (and money) down the earth drain this summer? No need! Next year you can dazzle passersby with an easy-to-care-for, non-thirsty garden that has all the color and curb appeal of a thirsty one. We'll cover lovely native and drought-tolerant plants, how to design an eye-catching landscape, planting and pruning techniques, tips for efficient irrigation, and lots more. A Saturday field trip will let you see the marvelous possibilities. Students will also receive assistance in planning their own landscape design. Franci is a landscape designer/contractor and owner of Xeriscape Design.
