Native Plant Walk with Frank Niccoli at Gamble Garden June 7, 2012

Discover California's native plants in their glory. This class will explore the varieties of texture and structure, colors of blooms, fragrance, and cultural requirements of our native plants. Explore the possibilities for creating a native plant garden or planting, watering, and maintaining native plants in your existing landscape. This "walk and talk" class will be held entirely outside in Gamble's gardens. This class is limited to 15 participants so everyone may benefit from Frank's expertise.

He is the owner of The Village Gardener, past president and founder of the local chapter of The California Landscape Contractors Association, and on the faculty of the Ornamental Horticultural Program at Foothill College.
