Learn how to choose the right plants for the right spots and add beautiful, low-maintenance Florida natives to your landscape.
About this Event

The key to a thriving, low-maintenance landscape starts with the principle of “Right Plant, Right Place.” In this class, you’ll learn how to select plants that match your site’s specific conditions- light, soil, moisture, and space- ensuring healthier growth and fewer problems. We’ll focus on incorporating beautiful, easy-care Florida native plants that provide seasonal color, attract pollinators, and support local wildlife.

Topics include:

  • Assessing your landscape conditions
  • Choosing plants suited to your site and lifestyle
  • Benefits of Florida native plants
  • Design tips for blending natives into existing landscapes
  • Maintenance practices to keep plants thriving

Bonus: Each participant will receive three Florida native plants to take home and add to their own landscape.

Whether you’re refreshing a single garden bed or planning a full-yard makeover, this class will give you the tools and inspiration to create a landscape that’s beautiful, sustainable, and uniquely Floridian.
