Bring Your Own Container (BYOC) Workshop -Early Spring edition - Saturday March 29th 1:30 m - 3pm

Here is your chance to get your hands dirty and take something beautiful and resilient to the cool temps of April and early May, home. And the best part,  you leave the mess with us!   

Wendy  will guide you to plant  a colourful container discussing all of the plant options that you can choose from including spring bulbs, pansies, violas, alyssum,  even early spring blooming perennials . 

You  bring your container, it can be a window box , a porch pot or even a hanging basket. We will help you get it filled with soil and then you can roam the greenhouse choosing your plants .  We encourage you to plant something different , and that is where we can come in to help.  No there will not be any geraniums to choose from , it is still too early for those tender annuals.  We will show which plants are the most cold tolerant and  you might be surprised at what combination you will come up with.

You must preregister for this event as it is not a 'drop in'.  You pay a nominal fee at registration to cover the soil costs for your container and you only pay for the plants that you use in your arrangement, which is completed  at the end of the session.  We will provide care tips on how to look after your arrangement during the temperamental days and sometimes frosty nights of early spring, because we all know how spring can be a little reluctant :)

This workshop is part of our SelfCare Saturday and we are always  so happy when you tell us how getting your hands dirty makes you feel so good :)

So  for those of you who do not know where to start in designing and planting a container, why not join us for this fun and casual afternoon,  sinking your hands in the soil.  Let's just call this a little bit of spring plant therapy!
