John Shandra--Landscape Architect, Gale Nurseries



The aesthetic and practical considerations associated with selecting plants for landscape planting designs will be considered in this five-session
course. Topics include: site analysis, developing functional diagrams, setting landscape priorities, and considerations of color, form, and texture in the garden. We will discuss
a variety of trees, shrubs, and groundcovers, emphasizing their uses in the landscape. If they wish, students may develop their own design for review with the instructor at the end of each class. The class meets five times.
