Planting Design for the Sustainable Landscape

Wednesday, October 29 | 9:00 am 4:30 pm

Richard Ludwig, PhD, former host of PBS TV’s GardenSmart, past garden specialist for Southern Living

This workshop focuses on the effective use of all types of plant material. This full-day workshop takes an artistic approach centering on how to combine form, texture and color. How to create and manipulate visual energy is a central theme as well. Students use the paradigm of block design to create stunning combinations. The course also teaches how to draw in a realistic elevation view to help communicate your ideas. Finally, the workshop provides research-based knowledge on soil preparation for herbaceous and woody plants.

This workshop is part of the Certificate in Sustainable Landscape Design. You must register for all four workshops. Please see the registration link for more details.
