Lynda Price, TWC Senior Naturalist
Based on a fantastic book, Planting in a Post-Wild World by Thomas Rainer and Claudia West, this presentation will introduce a new direction on how to use native plants in your gardens. Inspired by their approach to designing in layers and categorizing plants by their survival strategies and sociability level, this course will help attendees understand how plants thrive in the wild as a way of guiding where to put them at home.
