Join us in our 17th century barn the day before Mothering Sunday to pot up a selection of our beautiful antique and vintage containers. Julia will demonstrate:
- How she selects containers for interest and practicality
- How to choose plants - what works well and what dosn't
- The materials we use for potting up our containers
- Practical potting-up and 'tricks of the trade'
- How to make a good 'Pot et Fleur'
- Presentation and after-care tips for your potted plants
The course includes:
- The cost of the plants
- All the bits that go into potting up (grit, moss, compost etc)
- A container from our range of vintage and antique pots for you to choose from - to plant up yourself and take home with you.
We'll have some local cheeses and nibbles on arrival and then get cracking as soon as possible. Tea and coffee and fizzy beverages will be served throughout the afternoon, ending with a special 'Mothering Sunday Kitchen Tea ' with Fizz & delicious cakes before you go home.
