Great class at Old-Stonehouse Gift and garden! Had 12 people attending and I got so wound up I went for an hour and a half!
I cant thank Steve Giossi and his amazing staff enough for all they do. This place and these people are the best in our area. This will be an ongoing series. I will come up with a schedule and a list of classes that they will post. Man I love teaching!

Great consult yesterday up by the university. I have never seen a row of Arborvitae like this..it was about 40' feet tall! What a great green fence and shade for this yard! Someone knew what they were doing!

We had to cancel the class last Saturday due to the smoke. Looks like it's going to be much nicer this Saturday the 31st. So we are going to try again. This is an important class! It's all about drip irrigation. It will be at Old Stonehouse Gift and Garden at 10 am. The fee will be 10$ a person with each attendee receiving a coupon for 10$ off the purchase of 50$ or more. Hope to see you there!

Don't panic if you find a bunch of what look like wood chips on the ground under your London Plane tree. This is the limbs shedding old skin (see how green the limbs are) They always seem to do this in the heat but no worries it's natural.

I sure got to do some neat stuff when I was doing tree inventory work....

A challenging venue in Marina Del Rey....actually shooting trees inside buildings!

Now I want to believe this person was trying to create a Pineapple tree but I'll bet the ladder was short. (notice tree in background) In any case it's interesting!
