​
Jani will be showing us different design elements in the garden focused on form, foliage and texture. She will be bringing plants to show us examples of plantings utilizing these elements. This will also be instructional in terms of types of plants and their behaviors. Conifers and grasses will be showcased as a part of this lecture. This is an opportunity to put some of her design principles to use in your own landscape. Jani will be selling the plants that she brings for the Program!

Curtis Short is back! This Radical Root Care lecture and slide presentation is designed for anyone interested in growing trees or shrubs—or simply curious about how woody roots grow and how to support their health. We’ll explore root system structure and how to adjust practices to meet root needs. You’ll see common mistakes, like poor planting methods that stunt growth or soil coverings that suffocate roots, and learn how to avoid them. We’ll also cover why phosphorus fertilizer can be harmful, how to encourage beneficial mycorrhizal fungi, and where to place irrigation for best results. By the end, you’ll be equipped with practical knowledge to make smarter root care decisions.
