"Gardeners are no longer just caretakers of beauty; we are stewards of function in a changing climate. If we want our gardens to endure and thrive, we must plant for resiliency—designing landscapes as ecosystems, not collections." ⁠ ⁠ Richard Hayden, Senior Director of Horticulture at The High Line in New York City, writes about gardening with climate change at the forefront of design strategy in the "Last Words" of our May/June issue. ⁠ ⁠ You can read past and present "Last Words" at ahsgardening.com. ⁠ ⁠ Not a member?
