You don’t need to be a professional landscape designer to compose a gorgeous garden, but having access to professional insight and advice certainly doesn’t hurt. Some projects just don’t come together as planned, or the possibilities in a particular space are so vast and overwhelming that determining the right starting point feels impossible. Where you may see a tangled web of plant problems to solve, award-winning landscape designer Susan Calhoun sees a garden puzzle that she can put together. With 25 years of experience, there is no design issue she hasn’t encountered and resolved beautifully, and this webinar gives you exclusive access to that wealth of wisdom. During this one-hour-long live session, Susan will be answering all of your garden design questions and conundrums.
March 27th, 12pm EST
In this webinar, Susan will discuss:
- Techniques for tackling design challenges: Find solutions for the problems that plague your designs. Discover Susan’s expert tips for assessing your current garden situation and mapping out an effective plan for installing improvements.
- Finding balance in your design: Learn how to find balance among all of the competing elements in a garden. From expansive spaces to small courtyard gardens, Susan will explain how to make a landscape cohesive and consistent but never boring.
- Planning a design for year-round interest: A good design doesn’t cater to just the peak season. Susan will share her methods and advice for selecting plants and creating a landscape that looks good all year.
- And so much more!
