Landscape Design with Missouri in Mind Workshop


A few of the Missouri native plant suppliers attended an after hours workshop on internet communication opportunities with Dave Tylka and myself. This shows such dedication!
All were in attendance because of a two day workshop for professionals as well as gardening enthusiasts sponsored by the Grow Native program.

This was a wonderful practical application workshop sponsored by Grow Native that focused on natural communities, matching plants to property conditions, establishing a prairie plantings as well as tree selection.
As the final presenter, I had the opportunity to showcase the most doorstep appropriate Missouri natives for cultivated spaces.
