Paul Zammit, Horticulturist
Part One: Container Gardening: Drama for Every Season.
Just as outdoor garden spaces change throughout the year, Paul believes seasonal transformations should also be reflected in dramatic container arrangements in our gardens as well as on our patios and balconies.
Join Paul for an energetic presentation where he will discuss how to select your container then demonstrate the steps to successfully creating an eye catching and lasting planter. He will also highlight many of his choice plants, container combinations and planter accents just in time for this growing season.
Part Two: The Joy of Growing Edibles in Containers.
Paul believes that nothing feels better, and nothing tastes better, than fresh fruits and vegetables grown and picked from your very own garden. Whether you have a traditional garden, a patio garden, or even a balcony garden, there is no reason you should not be growing some of your own tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, fresh greens, herbs and yummy edible flowers too.
Paul will draw on his years of experience and share his favorite tips and tricks on what, and how to grow your own delicious edibles this season. Get ready to be inspired and to get growing.
