Native Plant Propagation Workshop
Saturday, February 6, 2010, 10 AM-2 PM
Warren G. Magnuson Park, Sand Point Way, Seattle
Taught by Jeanie Taylor

Learn how to propagate native plants in this workshop. We will cover seed collecting and planting techniques, vegetative propagation by cutting and live staking, and discuss general topics on propagating and growing native plants. Proceeds benefit education programs of WNPS.

Jeanie Taylor worked for Seattle parks for nine years, six of them in the propagation unit, where she grew native plants from seed, cuttings and spores, as well as annuals, perennials and ornamental nursery stock. She has given propagation talks to Seattle Parks forest stewards and taught a propagation class in the public education program at the UW Botanic Gardens Center for Urban Horticulture. She is currently testing the viability of native Northwest fern spores after storage for the Rare Care program at the UW. She teaches Restoration Horticulture at Edmonds Community College.
