Dynamic Drought Tolerant Gardening in the Pacific Northwest

Today’s gardens need to do multiple jobs; conserve water, create wildlife habitat, and be beautiful and inviting spaces. Longer and drier summers require a shift in the plant choice, plant situating, and installation methods to create and sustain these new types of gardens. Water usage in our urban areas is becoming more expensive and we need to create a new gardening paradigm. Jason Jorgensen will show you how to adapt to these challenges in this presentation.

This talk will cover an introduction to our Pacific Northwest climate, summer-dry gardening history and inspiration, suitable plant choices, planting techniques, and some Gardens of Inspiration.

You will leave the presentation inspired and ready to tackle new gardening challenges.

This event is available to Port Ludlow Garden Club members and non-members. Please contact Port Ludlow Garden Club directly for rates and registration. Port Ludlow Garden Club

Urban Gardening Series: Small Garden Space Design

Don’t let limited outdoor space prevent you from trying out your green thumb! From tasty fruits and veggies to flowering plants, trees and shrubs, you can grow it all in less space than you may think. Good design is essential for small space gardens. If you have limited room to grow, as many of us do in urban areas, maximizing the area you can garden in and wise plant selection are top priorities. Jason Jorgensen will teach you about space saving solutions and appropriate plant selection to make your balcony, patio, or small garden thrive. $25 BBGS members/$35 non-members.
