Ancient Plants, Modern Design – Dyck Arboretum Native Plant School

Join Katie Schmidt to learn about historic garden styles, and how to incorporate native plants in current plans.  This class will teach you how to use time-tested native plants to create contemporary landscapes, diving into the history of popular garden styles, learning their basic principles, and then identifying how you can emulate them in your own landscape with water-wise, pollinator friendly plants.

The Dyck Arboretum of the Plains offers numerous workshops that encourage the use of native plants in landscaping. Native plants are drought-tolerant, ornamental, and provide food and shelter to wildlife. A landscape rich with native plants can be enjoyed for its beauty and the wealth of birds and pollinators it attracts. All classes are $5 per person and will be hosted via Zoom.

You will be sent an email providing the necessary information for joining the online meeting. If you are unable to attend the live session, please remember we will send the recording following the live meeting.

All classes will begin at 7 pm and run approximately 45-50 minutes and then conclude with a question & answer session.
