Native garden design workshop - design or trial and error?
If you are planning a new native garden, revamping an existing one or transitioning an exotic garden to natives, then this is the workshop for you. We will explore how to apply 'design' to each of these situations with examples and hands on practice. If you have a spot in your garden that you want to redesign, bring along a map of it and we will play with ideas. She will bring some other examples to give your imagination free rein! Heather will also share with us how the Garden Design Study Group website on the ANPSA site is being updated to make the information more interesting and accessible. Heather is an excellent speaker with a passion for Australian native plants and their use in garden design. In addition, she is an excellent photographer and her photographs of plants and flowers will enhance her presentation. Heather’s talk will be followed by afternoon tea.
