It’s no surprise to Texans that the weather is often, at best, unpredictable. It never hurts to have a lawn and garden tough enough to withstand the ever-changing Texas weather.
Participants will also learn about:
- The ins and outs of landscape design
- How to evaluate the needs of your landscape
- Plants that need less water and maintenance
- Turf types that need less water
TRWD professionals will be in the virtual conference to walk participants through what makes the North Texas climate harsh and how to ensure that you have a healthy and vibrant landscape. They will also tell participants how they can create a vibrant yard on their own.
