Workshop: DIY Water Gardening

July 20, 2016 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Bartram’s Garden
5400 Lindbergh Blvd.
Philadelphia, 19143 United States

$15

Water gardening demystified! Learn how to create a magical, sustainable water garden in your own backyard—free of mosquitoes—without needing to hire professional landscapers or spend lots of money on supplies. This is the ideal workshop for people who have always loved pond gardens but have always felt like they didn’t have the space or the time or the know-how to create and maintain one of their own. A special selection of interesting and affordable water plants will be on sale from the Bartram’s Nursery after the class.
