X-WR-CALDESC:Note: This workshop is open to professional landscape designer
 s only.\n\nFunctional and ecological plantings\, such as rain gardens and 
 meadows\, are gaining on popularity but also face severe challenges. We wo
 n’t solve these issues if we continue to compare planting design to painti
 ng on canvas and perceive plants as individual objects in space. It is tim
 e for a new approach -- a plant community-based method that has evolved in
  the world of ecological science. \n\nJoin us as we translate ecological p
 rinciples of wild plant communities into planting design tools that will h
 elp you create better landscapes. This interactive workshop will introduce
  you to the science behind stable and lasting plant combination. You will 
 learn the skill of creating plant communities in four hands-on design exer
 cises and practice this technique in a hypothetical planting project. \n\n
 •	Understand scientific foundation of stable plant communities and learn ho
 w species fill ecological and spatial niches in successful planting.\n•	Lea
 rn how to translate the principles of wild plant communities into designed
  planting.\n•	Learn to visualize complex planting schemes and prepare insta
 llation guides.\n\nClaudia West is the co-author of Planting in a Post-Wil
 d World: Designing Plant Communities for Resilient Landscapes\, and has an
  extensive background in horticulture\, ecology and environmental restorat
 ion. West is a consultant for North Creek Nurseries and has worked for lan
