How do you best care and provide for native plants? Join online for a conversation with Reed Pugh, professional gardener, designer, and newsletter author. How can we work with native plants to maximize their ecological value? What roles do they play in our local ecosystems? Where can you source quality plants locally, and why is Local Ecotype (LE) an important consideration for success in your garden? There will be a lengthy Q-and-A, so bring your questions.
For over 25 years in San Francisco and Boston, Reed Pugh has worked in multiple nurseries; had his own design, installation and maintenance businesses on both coasts; managed a 30-acre historic private estate in Brookline; and managed one of the top fine-gardening companies in New England. Most recently, he focuses his passion on working individually with people in their gardens and showing them how to make their gardens and landscapes beautiful through inspiration, knowledge, and proper care with his company, Barking Dog Gardens.
