Join us at Harlequin's Gardens in Boulder and check out native plants that will thrive in your garden!

Learn from leaders of the Wild Ones Front Range Chapter whose native plant demonstration gardens grow native plants that no Colorado gardener should be without! Plants highlighted include native species that have thrived in our Wild Ones demo gardens and bloom throughout the growing season. Most featured plants will be available to purchase from Harlequin's Gardens.

                                        ****************************

Join both instructors, who are native plant demonstration garden developers, as they share stories about their favorite plants. What are the plants that catch everyone’s eye in the demo gardens? Which ones thrive in these minimally irrigated gardens? What do we love about them? What conditions do they like?
