Scott knows how to make desert gardening appealing and delicious to the eye! His in depth knowledge of desert plants is truly wondrous and his charismatic personality brings excitement to all those who have the pleasure of hearing him!
Great speaker/great guy

Scott's presentations are always fun, friendly and well prepared. He's always exploring new ideas and practices and combines great design with pragmatism and functionality.
Scott's enthusiasm is catching and it's no wonder he's got "groupies" that come to every talk he gives in Tucson.
Excellent Presentations
Greg Starr from Tucson, AZ - 07/20/2010 21:08:31
I have seen Scott speak several times to audiences with a wide variety of knowledge and interest about desert plants and gardening in general, and he never fails to capture the imagination of the group. He is relaxed, witty and informative, and always a pleasure to listen to.
The Best
Jane Q. Peterson from Oro Valley, AZ 85755 - 07/20/2010 15:40:46
Scott has spoken at the library I manage about 3 times and each time the audience was charmed and informed. What a knowledgeable and delightful guy. The library has all his books and they are never on the shelves because he is so popular.
The Best of the Best
Jo Falls, Tohono Chul Park from Tucson, AZ - 07/20/2010 13:50:21
Scott has been a regular speaker at Tohono Chul Park for more than five years. He brings to his classes not only his extensive plant expertise, excellent public speaking skills and wonderul sense of humor but his passion for the desert Southwest and its plants and gardens. I am honored that we have been the testing ground for many of his presentations and I am always up for a new "Scottism" or two. By the way, when's the next book? You will find no one better to liven up your gardens and gardening program.
