UPCOMING Workshops

spetember 18, 12-1 pm
With a large group of participants I will be using a digital presentation to demo the easy versatility of the Colorblock cards for home residential use. The focus will be my new Native Plants deck showcasing 25 Native Shrubs and 30 Native Perennials.

Just in : Participant Reviews of the White Flower Farm Workshop in May
The class was amazing. I learned so much. The Colorblock cards make it very easy to design and implement adding plants to my gardens. My new found knowledge and small library of cards, provides confidence when deciding what works where and opened up possibilities I was previously unaware of. ​The cards are simple to use and provide a visual for reference. I immediately put my new knowledge into action and bought several plants the very same day at Whiteflower Farm. Further, it was obvious we only tapped on the plethora of knowledge the instructor has - I hope to attend more workshops taught by Elizabeth. Lisa

" I learned a lot from the class and the cards helped me to focus my choices on plants that fit all the conditions and placement. I really like that you can also focus on the colors - whether to go complimentary or analogous. Has made me more more selective to find plants that are the right fit for color and conditions. I really learned a lot from the workshop and love the cards. I really enjoyed meeting you and appreciated the advice and counsel!" Stephanie Thompson
What to Expect During My Workshops
I am available for in-person and online workshops, and have taught popular classes at White Flower Farm, Rolling Green Nursery, the New Hampshire Art Association, and Gardener's Supply Company. During my workshops, I demonstrate how to use the cards and customize the selections for your individual garden sites. You will see how easy it is to find plants with the design cards to match the site conditions including sun/shade, soil types, drainage, height and width for placement in the border, and more. As a group, you'll practice with the cards to design two gardens: one for sun and one for shade. In addition to showing how to “color block” plants through the garden, each deck includes color wheels for pastel or jewel-toned palettes for a successful eye-pleasing design. The results are always uniquely yours! I have field tested each of the perennials and shrubs included in both decks: New England Perennials Zones 3-8 and Native Perennials and Shrubs Zones 2-9.
And, all general garden questions answered as time allows!
