As landscapers, and gardeners we typically spend most of our time thinking above ground. We spend countless hours selecting the right woody plant, considering the right exposure, combinations, size, color, and textures. Woody plant success is equally dependent on what is going on below ground. A scientific understanding of soil chemistry, biology, physics, and fertility makes us all better at our craft. This talk will address basic soil principles, and how we can use them to build and maintain “healthy” soils that maximize woody plant success.
