Perennials in the Landscape

 

You can create a beautiful perennial garden with the help of this instructional program.  Presented by two experts, Perennials in the Landscape takes you step-by-step through the process of designing and installing a new perennial garden.  This program was produced not only for students and employees, but also for gardening enthusiasts who want to learn more about residential landscaping.  Running time: 38 minutes.

 

Widely used in the classroom to illustrate landscaping and horticulture concepts, it is divided into concise, easy-to-understand segments and was reviewed by a panel of teachers for accuracy.  Perennials in the Landscape shows you:
