Desert Container Gardening: Stun Your Neighbors with Bold Winter Pots

@ Register Here $36 Non-Member / $29 Member Move beyond the usual flowers in a pot and learn how to create winter containers with more height, texture, contrast, and personality. This class is for gardeners who want fresh ideas, bolder plant combinations, and a more interesting look for their desert pots. Marylee will share ways to use familiar and less expected plants together, so your winter containers feel fuller, stronger, and more distinctive all season. Instructor Marylee Pangman Marylee Pangman founded The Contained Gardener in 1998 as a niche business in the desert community of Tucson, Arizona. Since then, Marylee has been compelled to share all that she has learned about container gardening over 3 decades of blistering summers and record breaking winters. Marylee sees container gardening as a way to have an oasis garden while conserving water as the demands of pots are far less than heavily planted areas and beds. You can find Marylee’s books, Getting Potted in the Desert, and Riley’s Garden Oasis at the Garden Gift Shop. These two books are excellent resources for creating and caring for potted gardens, advice on container selection, plant lists and much more. https://thepotteddesert.com Refund & Cancellation Policy No refund will be issued less than 15 days prior to any Community Class.
