Katy Moss Warner, president emeritus of the American Horticultural Society, will give a keynote presentation called "Why Color?" at the 2012 Northeast Greenhouse Conference and Expo. In her presentation she will share her experience of bringing color to the forefront in the gardens of Walt Disney World in Florida and offer insight on the importance of color in municipal landscapes from her travels judging cities with America in bloom.
From 1976 to 2000, Moss Warner was the director of Disney's horticulture and environmental initiatives at the Walt Disney World Resort. With a team of nearly 700, she was responsible for the landscapes of four theme parks, 15 resort properties and more than 70 miles of roads on the 30,000-acre property.
