Blooms

Blooms

Blooms all year long? A landscape that has flowers each season? Reliable plants for great color? You have a million choices. When you consider everything that blooms around us, I guarantee you will want to eliminate the lawn!

We are lucky in the middle part of NC – we have lots of options, probably more than you thought. With our temperate weather and clay soil (yes! clay is good!), it is possible to have something in bloom during each season, no matter the size of  your garden. It does take planning, but first let us introduce you to your many options. The key is knowing what is available. Designing gardens with flowers and fragrance all year, I know which plants are easily found. I also need to match the maintenance requirements to the garden owner. I will fill you in on when a plant might be hard to find or require more maintenance than you have time.

After this class introduces you to all the flowering plants in your area, consider taking our next class in this series: Creating a Blooming Garden  Home and Garden Workshops & Classes  in the Spring 2023. Spots will be limited so plan early.
