Landscape Design for Reduced Maintenance

July 7 @ 10:00 am 12:00 pm

Zoom Online class participants will receive a Zoom link for the live class two hours before the class begins.

$30 Non-Member / $24 Member

Learn how to design for beauty while avoiding common pitfalls that lead to high-maintenance requirements. Sadly, landscapes aren’t always designed with maintenance in mind. The result? Landscape areas filled with over-pruned plants resembling anonymous green ‘blobs’ that don’t reflect the original design intent. In addition, improper plant selection, watering, and other avoidable factors compound the higher demand for maintenance. Noelle Johnson ‘AZ Plant Lady’ will teach you how to avoid mistakes so you can create a beautiful landscape while decreasing needed maintenance.
