Native Plant Landscaping Without Embarrassing Your Kids and Neighbors

: California native irises are one of many California native plants that can be successfully grown in this area, and are a colorful addition to home landscapes.
Say goodbye to dusty, scraggly, sparse gardens, and hello to a vibrant native plant landscaping plan. On Saturday, October 3, from 2-3:30, the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, in partnership with Bob Sussman, owner of Matilija Nursery, presents a class on successful native plant landscaping. Native plants require less water and are beneficial to the Santa Monica Mountains ecosystem. Many gardeners find it useful to gather a few native plant ideas and prepare for the gardening year ahead by creating a native landscaping plan for the home garden.

This is the 4th annual fall presentation on native plant and gardening tips. Class participants will receive many handouts on native plant gardening, as well as coupons for Matilija Nursery’s fall sale. Matilija Nursery is located in Moorpark and grows plants native to California. A special section in the presentation will highlight native California irises and how to incorporate them into a garden plan.

Join us for this annual event, meet neighbors also interested in native landscaping, and come away with exciting gardening plans for the upcoming growing season.

This is a free program. Visitors are encouraged to come early so they can browse books on native plant gardening available at the park’s bookstore.
