About the Event

Join us for the next class in our Home Gardener Days series, presented in collaboration with Cabrillo College Horticulture and led by instructor Nicky Hughes.

In recent years, more nursery plant tags have begun to read “drought tolerant.” Learn what that term really means and explore the fascinating ways plants adapt to survive with less water.

The class includes a 45-minute lecture followed by hands-on learning activities in the Cabrillo Horticulture gardens.
