With the growing seasons trending toward warmer and dryer, and record-breaking weather events popping up with some regularity, the gardening climate in the Pacific Northwest is often less forgiving than it used to be. Some common gardening practices and plant choices may no longer be bringing the same success as before. This talk will provide practical tips for adjusting basic garden care practices such as planting, mulching, pruning, and irrigation as well as approaches to plant selection to cultivate gardens with improved resiliency to growing conditions in a changing climate.
