Learn about evaluating your garden site, drawing plans, site considerations, design principles and approaches, plant selection, and more, with a focus on Northwest native plants.

Deborah Horn, owner of Artemis Gardens Landscape Design, has designed and installed residential gardens throughout the Puget sound region since 2001, often drawing on her special love for red cedar and Douglas fir ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest. She was nursery manager of the MsK Rare Plant Nursery within the Kruckeberg Botanic Garden of Shoreline, Washington from 2003-2007. In addition to being a King County Native Plant Steward and Seattle Tree Steward, Deborah has designed native plantings for public spaces and volunteered on stream restoration projects in both Seattle and Shoreline. She has written articles and given lectures on fine gardening to community groups and horticultural organizations throughout the Puget Sound area.

This course includes two Thursday evening classes (6:30-9:00 p.m.) on April

22 and April 29, with a garden-tour field trip on May 1.
