If this summer left you wondering whether a beautiful garden is worth all the watering and work, I want to help you choose plants that make it easier.

Next Saturday, October 17, at 10:00 a.m., I’m teaching Native & Perennial Flower Gardens. We’ll cover how to create a garden with lasting color and plants suited to North Texas.

A good perennial garden starts with choosing the right plants for your conditions. Something that thrives in your neighbor’s sunny front yard might struggle beneath your trees. And a “drought-tolerant” label doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about getting a new plant established.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

• Choose native and perennial flowers for your garden’s sun, soil, and space.
• Combine plants for color across the seasons.
• Plant and care for them so they establish well and return year after year.

Fall is an excellent time to get started. You can give new plants time to develop roots before they face their first North Texas summer.

The class is included with Dallas Garden School enrollment, along with our on-demand class library, community, and help with your gardening questions. Join us live or watch the replay on your schedule.

(Replay of class will be available if you can't attend live.)

Already enrolled? You’re all set. Look for your class access details before Saturday.

See you in class!
