Planting for the Future: What is a Native Plant? with Gail Brandys and Dr. Robert Brandys

Not all “desert plants” are created equal. Understanding the difference between true native species, desert-adapted plants, and genetically appropriate cultivars can change the way we approach landscaping in the Las Vegas Valley.

In this class, Master Gardener, Gail Brandys and Dr. Robert Brandys explore the plants that once defined this landscape and what they can teach us about creating gardens that are both beautiful and ecologically meaningful. The goal isn’t simply to recreate the desert of the past. It’s to thoughtfully plant for the desert of the future.

This class is free and open to all but has been increasingly popular. We recommend coming early to secure your seat.
