Planting design workshop
This one-day design workshop introduces you to the how to design with plants in your own
garden.
What you will explore
We invite you to bring in photographs and information about your own garden project. We
will present a range of interesting planting design case studies to inspire you and explain
how the designer has tackled each project. Working as a group we will explore the planting
design challenges in your own garden and offer ideas to help you to select appropriate
plants and make interesting plant combinations suited to the conditions of your garden.
The day will be informal and relaxed. You are free to observe or get involved in the design
discussions.
We will provide all sketching materials, design inspiration and provide some useful
handouts for you to be able to go away and feel more confident to tackle your own planting
design.
Food and drink is available to purchase from The Craft House cafe throughout the day.
