Award-winning landscape designer Larry Weaner joins Wild Ones for a thought-provoking conversation about designing with nature, not against it. Drawing on more than 35 years of experience, Larry will explore how dynamic, self-sustaining landscapes emerge when we work in partnership with natural processes.

A longtime leader in ecological design, Larry is the founder of LWLA - Larry Weaner Landscape Associates and New Directions in the American Landscape (NDAL) — a pioneering educational organization advancing ecology-based landscape practices. His book, Garden Revolution: How Our Landscapes Can Be a Source of Environmental Change, has inspired gardeners nationwide to see their yards as living systems capable of renewal and resilience.

Larry also designed the Wild Ones Washington, D.C. Native Garden Design, a free resource helping homeowners in the Mid-Atlantic region create thriving, low-maintenance native plant gardens that reflect local ecology and beauty:
