Sustainable Privacy Plantings with Bonni Engelhardt

Sustainable Privacy Plantings with Bonni Engelhardt

One of the most common landscaping goals involves creating privacy and blocking unsightly views or road traffic. More often than not, the go-to solution is to plant a monoculture hedgerow that either demands a fair amount of resources to keep up in traditional style, or develops into a major fire hazard, as is frequently the case with Leyland Cypress. Come learn about a more naturalistic and sustainable approach to designing multi-purpose privacy screens that not only require less work, but also provide essential habitat for wildlife. And of course, with all the gardening challenges we face around here, drought tolerant, deer resistant and fire-wise plant options will all be discussed. Bonni Engelhardt is a local garden designer who loves to share her experience, knowledg,e and mostly her abundant enthusiasm for plants with others.
