Certified arborist Chris Stuhlinger will teach you how to select the right trees for your landscape, including site conditions to consider, tips for planting, and expert recommendations of which species to choose and which to avoid. The class will begin indoors and after a short introduction, you will walk through the Garden to see examples of these principles in action.

Chris Stuhlinger is an ISA Certified Arborist and an amazing teacher with more than 35 years of natural resources management experience in forestry, tree planting, water quality protection, wildlife habitat enhancement, and urban forestry. In 2018 he started volunteering at the Huntsville Botanical Garden, where he continues to assist with tree-related activities and teach various tree care classes. He is also a volunteer instructor for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at the University of Alabama in Huntsville.

After this class, you will be able to select the perfect trees for your landscape and enjoy their many benefits every day! As you probably know, trees provide structure, interest, and year-round beauty to any landscape.
