Plant a lovely winter garden at Tower Hill Botanic Garden on Sunday, February 11 from 1 – 3 with Betsy Williams. Garden indoors while you are waiting for the garden to return outdoors. A Pot-et-Fleur combines potted plants with fresh flowers in a decorative container. Flowering and tropical plants accented with lacy ferns, trailing ivies and fresh cut flowers become an enchanting table garden. With proper care, the plants will last for many months and the fresh flowers may be replaced when desired. Please bring floral scissors and an apron to class. Plants, flowers, container and mechanics will be supplied by the instructor. $80 for THBG members, $95 for nonmembers.
