This course is focused primarily on planting design, including assessing site conditions, bed layout, and plant selection. A list of required materials is provided upon registration.

All are welcome. Class is designed for the seasoned home gardener.

This program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Saturday, January 17, 2026 (Rain Date: Saturday 1/24).
