You’ll also receive information on how to use a planting template, gain ideas for artfully choosing plant material and receive guidance on seasonal care. Instructor Sunny McGann, Master Gardener and adjunct professor at Reynolds Community College, will demonstrate planting a sample container during class. You’ll be guided on a brief tour of stunning container plantings in the Garden and will take home a guide filled with inspiration for your home container project.
