The in-person class will cover:

- Correct methods for planting natives in the Summer
- How to deadhead and prune your native shrubs and perennials during the Summer
- When and what types of fertilizers to use on native plants, and whether to fertilize during the Summer
- Correct watering of newly planted natives, and established plantings
Attendees will have the opportunity to help install, prune, irrigate and collect seeds from various plants in our native plant garden at the Visitor's Center. Weeding and mulching may also take place.
This in-person class will take place outdoors at the King Gillette Visitors Center native plant garden. Most of the class will be in an exposed, full-sun garden setting.
