A continuation of the topics introduced in Part I of Introduction to Florida Gardening, Part II begins with the principles of Florida Friendly Gardening, gardening for Florida butterflies, proper use of fertilizers for sub-tropical trees and plants, irrigation tips, weed and invasive plant recognition, and plant selection for the South Florida landscape. This class includes a tour and continued discussions in our butterfly, Florida native, moonlight and cycad gardens.

Class is held in the air-conditioned Fort Myers-Lee County Garden Council building (enter across from the Estates parking lot on Larchmont Avenue). We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes, a hat and sunscreen, and bring drinking water.
