    These videos are so great! Even better than an in person workshop because we can go back and review.

    As someone starting the design process for my native garden here in the Inland Empire, this is perfect. Thank you so much for touching on the subject and giving me some inspiration to finally get rid of oversized lawn

    just watched this workshop and feel like I learned a lot. I'm a landscape designer and installer and am wondering more how native plants can be incorporated with non-native plants like cacti, fruiting trees and other typical landscaping plants. As a gardener myself, I personally have a big interest in fruiting plants and would be more interested in learning about native fruits plants and how they can be incorporated to the landscape

    Love the work you guys do! Thank you for posting the recordings. It really helps to be able to review the content and see presentations I can't make. 💚

    An overcast morning especially as it is rare in Southern California is not "gross". It is beautiful in its own way. Do you want 100% sunny hot days and zero precipitation?!

      This was when there was so much wildfire smoke in the air that our sunrises and daylight was filtered through a thick smoke cover. This guys a horticulturalist- pretty sure he knows that we need rain 🙄

    I'd like to plant either a Redbud (Cercis occidentalis) or Blue Elderberry (Sambucus nigra ssp. caerulea) at the edge of my lawn. Which would you recommend, if either?

    • @CBWCD

      If they are planted a number of feet outside of the lawn and they do not get watered directly when the lawn does, either might work well. The redbud may give you a more traditional look. The elderberry is an awesome choice, but if it is a front yard, might look more scraggly than some people would like at different parts of the year. If you are set on one of them, but are worried about overwatering due to proximity to the lawn, the elderberry might be a better choice.

    I like long videos on this topic, but it’s too long without the time indicators for the different topics. Going to take me days to go through it all.

      Hi Peter. We agree with you! Right now these are just raw recordings of past workshops we have taught. This year we are going though a process to re-record most of our workshop content into shorter indexed videos that will be much easier to work though, but it is a time consuming process! Thanks for the feedback.

    Would all California Native plants Thrive in Northern Baja California Mexico as well ? Tijuana to be exact.

      The native plants from San Diego and Baja might do best.

      Japanese gardens also use a variety of native plants (to japan) and it takes work and skill but they make beautiful gardens. You can absolutely accomplish that with california plants

      The real problem is that some folks aren't able to embrace seasonality...some plants have their "pretty floral display" time and their "semi-dormant" period. It's called a Sense of Place. This is what the plants look like that belong here. Go for a hike in the surrounding hills in spring and fall. Then maybe you can appreciate them in all seasons.
