About the Event


Description: Learn the secrets to a successful, healthy and colorful succulent landscape from Janice Moody, a local Master Gardener, nursery owner and garden designer.  She will discuss pre-planting considerations before you go out and buy a truckload of plants and then ponder where to put them.  She will also provide garden design basics that include use of color, shapes, textures and heights, along with her favorite hardy landscape succulents for the Bay Area.  And lastly, she will discuss how to care and maintain your succulents for a year-long healthy and colorful landscape.

UC Master Gardener Presenter Janice Moody: Janice’s horticultural roots run deep—she grew up on a nursery that her family started in Half Moon Bay in the early 60’s.  Although she majored in Dietetics at UC Davis, her inner passion for gardening never waned and after wearing many hats over the years, she finally found her true calling in life when she became a UC Master Gardener in 2010 and eventually started Seascapes Succulent Nursery and Garden Design in 2016, located in Half Moon Bay.  She calls herself a jack of many trades, but a Master of only one—gardening.  She feels so fortunate to be able to work outdoors, doing what she loves most, and sharing her gardening knowledge with others.
