Come Plant Shopping With Me 🌿

Think of this class as having a horticulturist alongside you while you're choosing plants for your garden.

For each plant, I'll show you what it looks like and talk about the practical things you'll want to know before bringing it home, including:

• Mature size
• Sun exposure
• Flowers and seasonal interest
• Why I recommend it
• Things you should know before planting it
• How to use it in the landscape

I'll also show you examples of these plants growing in actual landscapes, so you can see how they look once they're out of the nursery container and in the garden.

By the end, you'll have plenty of ideas—and probably a few new plants on your wish list!

Plant Shopping Can Be Overwhelming 

Have you ever gone to the nursery for one plant and found yourself wandering around trying to figure out what will actually work in your garden?

There are so many choices.

Some plants look fantastic sitting in a nursery container but become much larger than expected. Others struggle with our intense desert heat or need more water and maintenance than you bargained for.

And sometimes you find a great plant...but have absolutely no idea where to put it.

That's where I can help.

I've spent years helping homeowners choose plants for desert landscapes, and in this class I'm narrowing down the choices to some of the plants I recommend again and again.
