McCracken
County Horticulture Agent, and Les Evans (below right)
with the City of Paducah, paired up to explore good examples of landscape design
and general principles of plant selection and
installation.
Since getting started can be one of the most daunting aspects of any project,
the 24 students drew a simple house plan on graph paper and then used tracing
paper as an overlay to identify outdoor living areas like a play spot for
children, a vegetable garden, an orchard and a dog run.
