Connie's reviews

It was a good class. I wouldn’t say it was too informative unless your a novice with plants but I did really enjoy making my first Terrarium. My class leader was very nice and helpful also!

Dr. Ashkan’s class was informative. I’ve taken a few of his classes on Bento and really appreciated how he took simple topics and was able to dive into further detail and how he made complex topics like soil chemistry and water conservation techniques, simpler to understand. I’d recommend this class if you’re interested in learning how to plan, understand or execute landscape with water conservation in mind.

Dr. Ashkan explained Houseplant maintenance while addressing areas of basic care (soil, light, watering) and then more complex issues like fertilization. For example, with fertilization, how light affects how much fertilizer to use, which type is best for your plant, how to choose economically). I'm an avid gardener with probably 50+ houseplants and this class was both interesting and informative while knowledge in areas that I didn't know I needed it in! I'd recommend for any level of Houseplant lover from novice to expert.

This was a great class. There were prepared slides on areas of elemental and functional design. Questions were permitted at the end and information was presented clearly with many pictures, diagrams, and definitions. Ashkan was explained succinctly and thoroughly.
