Scree gardens are a great way to incorporate drought tolerant plants to your landscape.
About this Event

Scree gardens are designed to provide a desirable environment for drought tolerant plants including succulents, cacti, and other plants that wouldn't normally perform well in heavy clay soils. Join us to learn how to prepare this type of garden bed and what type of plants to include in one.

The class is free but registration is required.
