Container Gardening: Planting and Design
Tue, April 18, 10am – 11am
Cocoa Cinnamon, 420 W Geer St, Durham, NC 27701

For city dwellers, growing plants outdoors often means gardening in containers. Whether you live in an apartment, condo, townhome or house, our Urban Container Gardening series will get you prepared to grow ornamental plants or edibles in containers at your city home. For this two-part talk, you can attend either one or both seminars, as they’ll cover complementary information.

For our second class, you’ll learn from Extension Master Gardeners Cathy Halloran and Jackie MacLeod about selecting the right plants for the right place, differences between types of plants, design tips to make your containers look great, and then get your hands dirty designing and planting in containers.

Join the Extension Master Gardener℠ Volunteers of Durham County to learn gardening tricks and tips at the Cocoa Cinnamon Container Gardeners.

Durham Garden Forum

Tue, April 18, 7:00pm – 8:30pm

Anne Spafford, Professor of Landscape Design at
NC State University
High performing landscapes refer to garden elements
that serve multiple functions. A rain garden, for
example, can also be a pollinator garden, and can be
composed in a way that brings humans joy. A privacy
screen can also support wildlife. In this engaging
presentation, Anne will share her top ten design,
implementation and management strategies for
achieving sustainable and attractive landscapes.

The Durham Garden Forum is an informal
group that meets once a month to enrich
our gardening knowledge and skill.
3rd Tuesdays, 7:00- 8:30 pm via Zoom link sent to
registrants.
Memberships: $25 per year
Members have access to video library of presentations
