SUMMARY:Responsible Gardening in a Changing Climate with Emmy-Award winning professor Bryce Lane
DESCRIPTION:For generations\, gardeners have relied on familiar rhythms and dependable rules of thumb. But as temperatures shift\, weather patterns become less predictable\, and pests and plant stresses change\, many gardeners are finding themselves unsure of what practices still work—and what needs to change. \nIn this 6-week course\, you’ll learn practical strategies for gardening responsibly and resiliently in the face of a changing climate. Together\, we’ll explore how climate change is affecting home landscapes and gardens\, from rising temperatures and shifting hardiness zones to changing rainfall patterns\, longer growing seasons\, and increasing pest pressures. \nAdvanced registration required.

SUMMARY:The Art and Science of Plant Care
DESCRIPTION:Caring for plants is both an art and a science—part intuition\, part know-how. Every gardener\, from beginner to expert\, faces the same essential questions: When should I prune? How much should I water? What’s the best way to plant\, fertilize\, or repot? In this class\, Bryce Lane brings decades of horticultural expertise to demystify these everyday tasks\, showing you not just what to do\, but why it works. \nOver eight weeks\, you’ll explore the fundamental practices that keep gardens thriving\, learning how to perform each one with confidence and purpose. You’ll uncover the science behind good technique—understanding how soil\, water\, nutrients\, and plant biology interact—while also developing the practical judgment that comes only with experience. \nEach session focuses on one key aspect of plant care\, building a complete toolkit for growing healthier\, more resilient plants in any garden setting.

SUMMARY:Friends of the Arboretum Lecture
DESCRIPTION:We’ve all heard the stories of J. C. Raulston traveling the country and giving away plants\, but how did his plant introductions and ideas influence local gardeners\, landscape designers and early JCRA volunteers in creating their own gardens? \nSuzanne Edney is uniquely qualified to answer this question: she is all of the above. A local gardener and the creator of Olderwood in Apex\, North Carolina\, Suzanne is an award-winning landscape designer and consultant as well as the third person to volunteer at the arboretum. \nIn this documentary film\, “Gardening in the Footsteps of J. C. Raulston – Olderwood\,” Suzanne takes us through the design considerations that transformed her barren-looking space into the extraordinary Piedmont woodland garden of today. Listening to Suzanne and following her through her garden\, you’ll learn about trees\, shrubs and ground covers that thrive in Triassic basin soil\, including the woody plants that J. C. encouraged her to try. \nAs a landscape design instructor and lecturer\, Suzanne shares her solutions to common gardening problems. What about that muddy area near the house? How can I make a comfortable place for people to sit in my garden? Should I incorporate art into the garden? \nWhether you’re motivated by the desire to enhance your plant knowledge\, get new ideas for your landscape\, or simply want to take a beautiful stroll through this lovely private garden\, please join us for the premiere of “Gardening in the Footsteps of J. C. Raulston – Olderwood.” \nSuzanne will be available in person to answer your questions after the film.

SUMMARY:50 Brilliant Plant Combinations with Bryce Lane
DESCRIPTION:Mondays\, August 17 through September 28\, 2026 — 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm (No class on Monday\, September 7). \nTo celebrate the JC Raulston Arboretum’s 50th anniversary\, this 6-week course explores 50 brilliant plant combinations that showcase the power of pairing plants with purpose. From colorful annuals and dependable perennials to shrubs\, trees\, and vines\, we’ll examine combinations that stand out for their beauty\, ecological value\, seasonal interest\, and practical performance in the landscape. In this class\, you’ll learn how different plants can complement one another through color\, texture\, bloom time\, structure\, habitat support\, and garden function. Along the way\, Bryce will share practical insights into plant selection\, placement\, maintenance\, and design strategies that help these combinations succeed in real home gardens — not just on paper.
