The L.A. Times Plants newsletter is for everyone who cares about plants — whether you’re a committed gardener with tons of yard, a condo dweller with a balcony container garden or a landless environmentalist who wants to see habitat restored as much as possible for our threatened species.
At the start of each month (and only once a month!) we’ll send you a roundup of upcoming plant-related activities and events in Southern California, along with links to tips and articles you may have missed.
Don’t forget the joy of plants. Always take time to stop and smell the roses … or better yet, some delicious Cleveland sage!
