DESCRIPTION:The tour will begin at the Manhattan Beach Botanical Garden\, a demonstration garden and certified nature habitat located in Polliwog Park. Garden director Gretchen Renshaw will share the season’s most stunning collections\, emphasizing the garden’s work on earth-friendly gardening techniques such as water conservation for the home landscape\, installation and care for California native plants\, and creating wildlife habitat. The tour will continue to private Manhattan Beach gardens to delight in designs highlighting native plants\, habitats for pollinators and birds\, and canopies of acacias that create the feeling of a secluded woodland. \nGretchen Renshaw is a horticulturist and teacher. She is a founder and volunteer director at the Manhattan Beach Botanical Garden in California. This demonstration garden features California native plants and sustainable gardening practices. She is a former horticulture instructor at UCLA Extension\, where she taught for over 25 years. One of her courses was a four-unit class on Soils and Plant Nutrition. Difficulty finding a suitable textbook for the course\, lead her and her writing partner to write and publish: “Underground: A Gardener’s Guide to Soil and Plant Nutrition.” Prior to retirement\, Gretchen worked as a science teacher at an elementary school\, engaging students in hands-on science activities from kindergarten to fifth grade. She has a bachelor’s degree in Horticulture from Cal Poly\, San Luis Obispo. \n$40 AHS members/$50 non-members\nAll tours are listed in location’s timezone\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: Designing with Fragrant Flowers and Aromatic Foliage
DESCRIPTION:Ralph Waldo Emerson memorably said\, “The earth laughs in flowers\,” which captures the joy people find in cottage gardens and cheerful urban flower plantings. Unlike color\, fragrance is ephemeral\, invisible\, and hard to describe\, but just as powerful! It summons memories\, provides comfort\, and often takes gardeners and garden visitors to exotic parts of the world. In this session\, Christopher Sheridan will explore the language of fragrance\, share design strategies for scented plants\, review a classic classification system\, and journey through the scented bloom cycle. Get in the spirit and bring a new level of creativity and enjoyment to gardening\, flower arranging\, and garden touring. \nChristopher Barrett Sheridan\, The Flower Sommelier\, is a horticulturalist\, floral design instructor\, and aspiring historian\, specializing in scented plants\, heirloom flowers\, romantic garden design\, and Victorian floral traditions. Chris regularly offers immersive design workshops at Longwood Gardens and lectures at national events\, including the Philadelphia Flower Show and the International Master Gardener Conference. A Harrison Fellow of the Historic Landscape Institute\, he is developing Founding Era Garden programming to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: Mexican History of Botany
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Dr. Lopez will focus on the history of botany in Mexico (including the southwestern United States that were previously part of Mexico)\, drawing from his new book\, Rooted in Place: Botany\, Indigeneity\, and Art in the Construction of Mexican Nature\, 1570-1914. Rooted in Place traces historical transformations in the relationship between nature and imagined communities across three interlinked moments in the Renaissance\, the Enlightenment\, and the late nineteenth century in Mexico. It is the first major study of the relationship between understandings of nature and the creation of structures of rule within Mexico. The book intentionally weaves between environmental history\, history of science\, visual culture\, and political history. \nRick A. López is Anson D. Morse 1871 Professor of Latin American History and Environmental Studies at Amherst College. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: Plants for the Winter Garden
DESCRIPTION:The winter garden is a truly low maintenance affair and a time to enjoy – no weeding\, no watering and no deadheading! The winter landscape may be quiescent\, but the garden need not be bleak. Plants with brightly colored berries\, twigs\, stems\, foliage and even winter-blooming flowers shrug off the snow and cold. Landscape horticulturist Warren Leach\, author of Plants for the Winter Garden\, will showcase gardens he has designed that celebrate the winter season as well as planting design ideas for your own garden. \nWarren Leach is a passionate plant collector\, nurseryman\, horticulturist\, and landscape designer with a depth of knowledge of all garden plants including perennials\, tropical\, temperate and woody plants. For more than 35 years\, Leach has been creating landscapes throughout New England as well as making captivating and education display gardens at Tranquil Lake Nursery in Rehoboth\, MA. Leach is an award-winning landscape designer and has taught horticulture and landscape design at numerous horticultural institutions. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here
