This month on the Roundtable, we take a break from perusing seed catalogs and planning for spring planting for a garden design reality check. Our topic, Reality Check/Don’t Do This… is sure to illicit a wide range of thoughts from our group of Roundtablers..
Joining us this month is our guest, noted landscape architect David Cristiani, author of the blog The Desert Edge.
Here is a little more about David -
David has over 20 years of experience designing outdoor environments in the Southwest. His projects include a variety of resource-conservative commercial, institutional, and residential designs.
David has merged the practice of landscape design with his knowledge of climate and the study of arid-region plant geography and species composition. This unique insight has proved valuable for both site-specific design work and for assisting regional growers, by collecting seed and cuttings for large-scale production of promising high desert plant introductions.
And now, for a look at Reality Check / Don’t Do This…
