Break through the mystery that surrounds managing your native wildflower garden for maximum aesthetic appeal and wildlife benefit. Dr. Denice Robertson of Pollinator Plant Design will cover everything from establishing your new garden to summer maintenance and weed control, to preparing your garden for winter. 

About the Instructor: Denice Robertson has a PhD in Ecology and is faculty at Northern Kentucky University. She is involved in research on prairie restoration specifically on increasing the success of milkweed. In addition, Denice owns Pollinator Plant Design, which is a garden design company focused on creating gardens using native plants that enhance the natural habitat and provide food, shelter, and host plants for pollinators. She has experience dealing with poor drainage, creating a pollinator paradise in a shady yard, and working with areas that contain multiple conditions. She focuses on creating a habitat that works with existing conditions, as there are many native plants to enrich any area regardless of the amount of light or water.
