On Sunday, January 29 from 12:30 – 2:30 at Tower Hill Botanic Garden, learn how to plant, and maintain, a miniature garden in a bowl. Plant an attractive 8″ open-topped glass container with a selection of decorative slow-growing plants, then design a landscape for your indoor garden. Choose from a selection of polished stones, river pebbles, sea glass, shells, lichen covered twigs and decorative mosses to create a living picture that will delight your eye all winter long. With a little water and occasional pruning, your open terrarium will give you many months of pleasure. Please be sure to bring a pair of floral scissors to class. All other materials included. THBG members $60, nonmembers $75.
