DOLORES, Colo. – The Bureau of Land Management’s Anasazi Heritage Center will offer a free tour of its native plant beds and garden seminar on Saturday, Aug. 5, at 9 a.m.
Ann Street-Joslin, Colorado Master Gardener, and Jan Sennhenn, retired Colorado State University Extension Agent, will showcase the garden plots while sharing insight about plants that do well in the area. They will discuss plant selection for high altitude and high desert gardens, compatibility of plants, irrigation, weed and pest management as well as general gardening topics. This free garden tour will last about an hour.
