Planning & Design - Problem Spots & a Pet Friendly Garden Workshop
This workshop is very practical and its aim is for you to achieve the very most from your garden site whatever you feel is its limitations may be!! Come along and join Marguerite in learning how to make the most of those areas and bring colour and interest to those problem spots, whether they are shady, wet, hot or dry, cold and windy or any other site causing you issues.
The workshop will also cover the key aspects to create a pet friendly garden including plants to avoid.
The day will include planning and design tips, plant suggestions and plant combinations for challenging sites and how to achieve long term interest in such areas. There will be lots of practical advice on things such as testing and improving your soil and understanding factors such as aspects.
The last 30 minutes of the session will allow for summary round up and Q & A.
All you need to bring with you on the day is a notebook and pen. You will be given handouts relevant to the workshop to take home. There will be lots of opportunities during the day to handle materials referred to during the session. The workshop is very interactive and at any point during the day you can ask questions relating to your own gardens.
