One result of our first meeting was some interest in plandesign design and creating a designed landscape. The instructor for this Denver Botanic Gardens class is Travis Beck and pre registration is required. If there's interest from the meet-up in this fee-based course, I'll coordinate further.

08BGC600 - Planting Design
2/28/2008 - 3/6/2008

In this class, students will gain an understanding of the many considerations - functional, horticultural, ecological and aesthetic - that go into preparing well-designed planting plans. Participants will learn practical techniques for drawing up successful planting plans inspired by examples of local gardens and the work of great designers, including Gertrude Jekyll and Piet Oudolf. A series of in-class exercises will give students experience with various facets of planting design. Travis Beck is a Denver landscape designer with Eco-Savvy Design and Landscapes LLC, his own design/build firm.
A list of required materials will be provided upon registration.
