In the Garden
with UCCE Master Gardeners
Home Gardening
To California native plants, November is more like their “spring” wake-up time rather than getting ready for cool winter quiet. So NOW is the time to see your established natives come back to life after the brutal heat of the summer and the fall rains have started. AND, now is the time to learn about Designing with Nature: California Native Landscapes. To lead the discussion on this topic on In the Garden with UC Master Gardeners, Master Gardener Bill Brooks met with Rachel Davidson, landscape designer, former Manager of the Tree of Life Nursery, and landscape consultant with Monarch Environmental. Today we’re going to talk about native plant design – how to plan a landscape, choose plants, incorporate hardscape, replace turf, design irrigation, and successfully ** get those plants established.
** Native doesn’t mean “plant it and forget it.”. Key word = ESTABLISHED.
