This talk will be held at the Los Altos Library and will not be available online.
Let’s discuss how planting locally appropriate native plants can save water and provide abundant biological resources for the environment. We’ll cover key design elements and best practices for maximizing environmental resiliency. Most importantly, we’ll cover just how simple, accessible and fun it is to set nature in motion.
Juanita Salisbury is a landscape architect. She addresses all aspects of the landscape design: from grading and drainage issues, coordinating with engineers and architects, lighting design, and designing custom elements. Additionally, her native plant expertise allows her to design ecologically friendly, drought-tolerant plantings. Her native plant palettes create beautiful, productive and abundant habitats that enhance biodiversity.
