A light hearted and humorous workshop with Julia and Jacky about how simple it is to use evergreens, shrubs, ferns, grasses and other hardy plants with seasonal colours and bulbs to create autumn/winter colour in a container or basket.
The workshop begins with a demonstration and you then have the chance to create your own with our help.
Buy your container, pot or basket from the selection we have at the nurseries or bring your own from home. Often overlooked is the colour available to us through the winter. Most of the plants used in these baskets can be planted out into the garden when we are ready to refill our baskets in April/May.
Julia is an extremely knowledgeable horticulturalist, who has a passion for "The Kitchen Garden". She comes from a family in Ireland who grew vegetables commercially. She studied Botany at Trinity College Dublin, Kinsealy Research Centre and The Botanic Gardens in Glasnevin, Dublin.
Julia has designed several gardens including the garden for Princess Anne's visit to the Paddocks Housing Trust, and frequently gives horticultural talks, writes garden articles for local magazines and recently developed a gardening YouTube channel.
Arrive at 10.15 am for 10.30 am start. The talk ends at 12 noon.
