Topic: Native Plant Garden Maintenance - Spring and Summer Techniques

Presenter: Antonio Sanchez

Description: Spring has arrived, and with it longer, drier days, but that doesn't mean your low-water garden has to look dry too!  Join us for a combination PowerPoint/ hands-on workshop where attendees will learn about:

  • Transitioning from 'Wet-Season' watering techniques to 'Dry-Season' watering techniques
  • Methods for keeping your plants flexible and flowering during the dry season
  • Which plants to prune, shape and maintain during this transitional period
  • How to install and irrigate plants during this transitional period
  • Pests to look out for and tips on fertilizing your low-water garden

The class will be led by Antonio Sanchez, Nursery Manager for Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area Native Plant Nursery in Newbury Park.  Antonio has over 15 years of experience growing, installing, and maintaining native plant gardens, and has led workshops covering the same topics across the state.

This class is free. Advanced registration is required.
