SUMMARY:Houseplant Care
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nDoes houseplant care all seem like guesswork? It can if you don’t get to know your plants\, but there’s really no mystery to keeping houseplants healthy\, and there’s no such thing as a brown thumb\, only a lack of know-how. Most houseplants are simply plants that once grew and thrived in tropical climates and/or in greenhouses. The “secret” to success with taking care of house plants is to attempt to recreate the same ideal conditions as they would enjoy in their native habitat. Unlike their ancestors in the wild\, house plants are completely dependent on you for their care. \nThis class will cover houseplant basics like indoor plant lighting\, watering\, humidity\, fertilizing\, nutrition\, grooming\, diseases\, pests\, repotting\, and orchid care. \nPresented by Randy Meyer: \nRandy Meyer\, founder of Tropiflora\, has had a lifelong love affair with plants. He enjoys sharing his knowledge and passion with clients and helping them bring the benefits of the natural world indoors. \nBorn and raised in a small Wisconsin town\, Randy grew up with a deep appreciation for gardening. There were always plants and flowers in their home and his parents extensive gardens were his hands-on classroom. Randy studied horticulture and floriculture (flowering and ornamental crops) at the University of Wisconsin. As a student\, he was selected to design and plant the ornamental gardens on campus. \n After college\, Randy moved to Portland\, Oregon and worked for a wholesale grower of tropical plants and went on to manage an interior plantscaping company. He later became the head gardener for a thirteen-acre botanical garden. His interest in tropical plants eventually drew him to Hawaii where he owned a woodworking business and worked with the native flora as caretaker for a three-acre property. \nRandy and his family have called Fort Collins home since 1998 where he started Tropiflora in 2007. He blends his plant care experience with a study of emerging worldwide research which demonstrates the many measurable health benefits of having plants in the home or workplace. His knowledge and expertise are unique\, valuable resources for the Northern Colorado region. \nExperience Level: Beginner-Advanced \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:The Wonder of the Spring Garden
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nFew things are as exciting as the first signs of life and color after a long winter. Learn about great plants that brave the early season to show off their best.

She is author of several garden books and has introduced numerous plants to the nursery trade.

SUMMARY:Dwarf Conifers You’ll Grow to Love
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nFebruary in Northern Colorado is a perfect time to take a close look at your gardens to see where extra textures and shapes would add interest\, beauty and shelter for songbirds and smaller wildlife. This workshop will focus on dwarf and smaller forms of familiar conifers\, as well as a few you may have never heard of. From fir to pines\, you’ll discover garden-sized conifers that are truly dwarf yet hardy and adaptable to our conditions. Learn which plants to avoid\, which to fall in love with\, and how to be successful with the plants you choose.  \nPresented by Pat Hayward: \nPat Hayward\, former Executive Director of Plant Select\, has been involved in the regional horticultural industry for 40 years. Two-time winner of the Colorado Nursery & Greenhouse Association Nursery Person of the Year award\, she’s presented on a variety of horticultural topics at dozens of regional and national conferences. \nDuring her 5-year stint as a salesperson at Iseli Nursery in Boring OR she discovered the beauty and wide range of thousands of conifer varieties being sold across the country. Returning to northern Colorado 21 years ago\, she and her husband Joel have now trialed hundreds of taxa in their gardens in the foothills west of Fort Collins\, learning as much from their failures as their successes. In addition to this class\, she teaches a popular\, all-day conifer workshop at Denver Botanic Gardens. With her husband\, they constantly seek out new varieties to test and evaluate for local gardeners. \nExperience Level: Intermediate \nClick here to register
