Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
At Olbrich, success is not defined by just creating gorgeous gardens, but also modeling sustainable techniques for fellow gardeners to adopt at home. Erin Presley, a horticulturist at Olbrich for 10 years, walks you through our best practices for attracting and supporting insect life, managing weeds, building soil, and saving water on a scale that is adaptable to whatever space you garden in. This honest appraisal also covers where we could be improving and looks to the audience for your tips, too.
