FLOWERS AFTER HOURS:  Fall Porch Pot

Thursday, September 10, 6:00 p.m.

$60.00 + HST

Join us for a unique opportunity to socialize and learn, all while creating a lovely planting project for your home.  We'll begin the evening with time for after-hours shopping in the store, while sipping on a weekly signature mocktail and munching on a charcuterie cup from "The Cheesy Fromage".  At 6:30 p.m., we'll begin our project in the dedicated workshop space in our climate controlled greenhouse environment.

Our project this week is to create a Fall planter for your porch or to use as an urn insert.  Our container will be a basic 12" round pot filled with appropriate container soil.  Vikki, your host, will introduce the plant choices, such as mums, cabbage/kale, rudbeckia, asters, heather, pansies, grasses and other cold tolerant annuals.  You will choose your favourite five to six Fall plants and design your planter with them, adding in moss to hide the soil and a few fun Fall decor picks.

All materials are included.

Fall Festival: A Beautiful Porch Pot

Saturday, September 12th, 10:00 a.m.

$80.00 + HST

It’s time to change your porch pot for the season! Participants will use a simple, square, black classic pot filled with fresh potting soil and design a beautiful arrangement using 7-8 Fall-inspired annuals. Choices will be plentiful and include: ornamental grasses, rudbeckia, mums, asters, ornamental kale/cabbage, ivy, croton, celosia, sedum and more. To create a planter that is truly unique, a variety of accents will be offered.

This is larger than an urn insert size; the square pot is approximately 15-16" in diameter, ensuring a lovely large Fall planter.

The planter will be filled with fresh potting soil, and participants will design a beautiful arrangement using 6-7 Fall-inspired annuals and/or foliage plants. Choices will be plentiful and include: ornamental grasses, rudbeckia, mums, asters, ornamental kale/cabbage, ivy, croton, heather, celosia, sedum and more.
