Planting with Confidence: Choosing the Right PlantsPart of the Spring Garden Series @ Root 31!
May is peak planting season — and it’s easy to get excited, overspend, or choose plants that don’t end up thriving in your space.
Join us for an informative garden talk and discussion focused on helping you choose the right plants with confidence and avoid common (and often costly) mistakes. This session is especially helpful for those looking to grow vegetables, herbs, and edible gardens, while also making thoughtful, long-term planting decisions.
We’ll cover how to evaluate plants at the nursery, including what to look for in root systems, plant structure, and overall health. You’ll also learn how to read plant tags like a professional — understanding spacing, sun requirements, and mature size so you can plan ahead and avoid overcrowding.
We’ll also touch on fruit plants, including basic pollination needs, placement considerations, and what to realistically expect when growing your own. Finally, we’ll discuss how to think beyond the current season and make smart planting decisions that support a thriving garden over time.
This will be a relaxed talk + Q&A format, with plenty of space for questions and discussion so you can walk away with clarity for your own garden and planting decisions.
Whether you’re heading to the nursery for the first time this season or looking to make more informed choices, this session will help you plant with intention and confidence.
Cost: $15
