Master Gardeners present: Adding Arboretum All-Star Plants to Your Garden

 Arboretum All-Stars is the name of a collection of 100+ waterwise plants that are proven winners for your garden. These plants have been grown and tested across California by Master Gardeners, including in our demonstration garden in Palo Alto (851 Center Dr., Palo Alto, open 24/7 dawn to dusk every day of the year). Join us for a talk about these different plants and how you can use them in your garden.

You can browse the online searchable database of Arboretum All-Stars at http://arboretum.ucdavis.edu/arboretum_all_stars.aspx -- search on the type of plant (tree, shrub, perennial, annual, etc); size (small, medium, large); exposure (full sun, part shade, shade) and also narrow the search to California Natives only if you like.

You can also download the brochure of 100+ plants with all this information from the Arboretum All-Stars website.

A few All-Stars plants will be raffled off free!
