Nebraska gardeners are more than a little careful about where they get their advice but they trust recommendations from High Country Gardens, a mail order nursery specializing in plants that meet Nebraska’s tough-as-nails requirements for hardy, water thrifty, ornamental and environmentally friendly plants.
Horticulturist David Salman is the featured speaker of the 2009 Joseph & Dorothy Young Memorial Lectures in Horticulture at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) on Thursday, November 5 at 7 p.m. at the UNL City Campus Union auditorium. He will be speaking on “The Water Thrifty Garden: Enjoying colorful native and adapted perennials in your Nebraska landscape.” A professional nurseryman, greenhouse grower and gardener for his entire career, Salman also writes his High Country Gardens catalog and selects the plants offered by the catalog. As part of his professional focus, he also seeks out, breeds and evaluates garden worthy plants, specializing in native species from the U.S. and northern Mexico as well as cold hardy, xeric species from western Asia and South Africa.
