Free admittance to current Durango Botanic Gardens members, $35 for non-members. This year's focus is on native plants: What exactly constitutes a "native" plant and what value do they offer to gardening and landscaping in our challenging growing region. ALSO, Mike Smedley reprises his iconic "Plant This, Not That" presentation, a must for newcomers to our area and a good refresher for longtime residents. Registration and intake begins at 12:30pm, presentations at 1:00pm. To learn more visit our conference website at durangoscape.org.
