Public talk about colorful drought landscaping

A drought-resistant garden need not be drab|

The public is invited to hear Karen Boness, owner of Wild Willow Landscape Design, speak on “Master Planning Your Garden for Year-Around Color.” Boness is an expert on colorful drought-tolerant plants and she serves on the design team of the Sonoma Garden Park and recently completed a master plan of the gardens for presentation to Sonoma City officials.

Boness earned a permaculture design certificate at La’akea Gardens on the Big Island of Hawaii and furthered her studies at Merritt College in Oakland, where she received certificates in both landscape horticulture and landscape design.

The Valley of the Moon Garden Club meets at the Sonoma Valley Veterans Building, 126 First St. W.

A “Meet and Greet” time is at 6:30 p.m. with the meeting presentation beginning at 7 p.m. 

The club provides refreshments, a plant raffle and information on club programs. Members are free and guests are $5, which can go toward the $20 membership fee.
