2024 Events - Garden Chats - Stay Tuned for 2025 - to be updated soon! ​
Not sure what to put in that gap in your garden? Want plants that bloom 4 months or more and come back every year? Looking for tips on how to keep your plants healthy – watering, dealing with pests and overwintering? Come on out for a visit and join one of our Garden Show and Tell Classes.... I call them "Garden Chats".
How to Choose & Maintain Long-Blooming Perennials. We’ll look at a selection of the longest blooming perennials and how they can be combined in your garden for long-lasting color from spring until fall… and beyond. I’ll highlight some of my favorite plants – easiest to grow, most hardy, longest blooming, most unique, etc. I’ll talk about the techniques I use to keep plants healthy, including special tips on planting, watering, fertilizing, and debugging problems. Throughout the class, we’ll be walking in the garden - to see how all of this comes together in beautiful combinations of colors, textures, and shapes. Each Saturday session will cover different plants and areas of the garden plus additional topics… something new every time!
