Seminar Price: $60

CEUs: APLD, IA, NALP, PGMS, QWEL

Living green today often carries the message that you should "lose your lawn." Don't take grasses for granted! Find out how to landscape with Conventional Turfgrass Species, California Native Grasses and Kurapia Utility Ground Cover.

Become familiar with the newest water conserving turfgrass varieties as well as innovative lawn alternatives that once established use 50 to 60 percent less water. Multiple examples of colorful, eco-friendly, water-wise landscapes will be shared to show the versatility of these products and help with making the right selection for your landscape.

Armed with increased awareness in the area of irrigation requirements, maintenance practices and the value of low water-use grasses, you will be empowered to create balanced, sustainable landscapes at home and throughout your community.
