GardenGuru: Alternative Landscaping Course

Helpful gardening tips, advice, and news from top gardening bloggers and experts

My prior two landscaping courses covered the basics of landscaping and were geared to a wide audience. The "Alternative Landscaping" course, by contrast, is designed for a narrower, more "committed" crowd who, not content merely to have a pretty landscape, wish to dig a bit deeper and question our attitudes toward the landscape.

Some of the topics addressed in the Alternative Landscaping course include:

Pest control without chemicals
Companion Planting
Earth Day
Invasive plants
Organic weed control
"Green" lawn mowers
Alternatives to lawns
Re-evaluating "weeds"
Woodland gardens
