There is a hidden treasure among shrub species in the unending quest for good small scale trees for urban gardens. We will look at a special group of evergreen and deciduous selections among the Arboretum’s plantings that reveal the hidden arboreal characteristics and functions of plants too often relegated solely to shrub status.
This interactive class includes classroom and field segments. We will also discuss right plant, right place, sustainability, design functions and aesthetics, how plants change in the landscape over time, and incorporating new plants into old landscapes.
Taught by Christina Pfeiffer, Horticultural Consultant and Instructor, ISA Certified Arborist
