California native plants have a rhythm which differs from that of typical northern European species. In the book, California Native Gardening: A Month by Month Guide, you’ll learn that our “spring” typically begins in October, when much of California leaves the dry season behind. Learn about each season’s or month’s gardening tasks and see different planting and design ideas. Hear about the core gardening techniques you’ll need to master, such as pruning, mulching, and propagating as they pertain to our unique native plants.

The author of the book, Helen Popper, will provide calendar-based information for both beginning and experienced native gardeners. She is a long-time Chapter member and one of the first Gardening with Natives committee members.
