2010 Gardening Classes
Gardening with Plant Select® Jazz up your plant choices with Plant Select At LHWD Friday, May 14th Bring a little improvisation to your gardening choices with plants introduced and recommended through Plant Select®. This collaborative effort offers a new landscape palette of innovative and exciting plants brought to the area by plant explorers from Denver Botanic Gardens, researchers from Colorado State University, and from many of the best regional growers and gardeners. Learn how to identify, select, and design with shrubs, trees, perennials, groundcovers and vines chosen specifically to grow and thrive in our unique climate. Many of these plants are particularly water-thrifty, too! Pat Hayward is a veteran of the region’s horticultural realm, working in production, sales, marketing, and education since 1979. A lecturer, writer and photographer, she has written for numerous national publications and has co-authored two books. Her gardens have been featured in Colorado Homes and Lifestyles, the Colorado Gardener, the American Conifer Society bulletin, Women’s Day magazine, and HGTV. She joined Plant Select® as its first Executive Director in 2008. Additional Classes in the Area Check out the Free Landscaping and Watering How-to Series 2010 from Northern Water in Berthoud.
