About this Event

Just in time to help you create an award-winning container garden for the September, 2026 Haywood County Fair https://www.haywoodcountyfair.com/ Learn how to choose containers to fit your space, as well as the right blend of plants that will allow your assortment to not only grow, but thrive. Have fun with artistic design - choose a plant that is the standout plant – it can be large, tall or full of interesting flowers or have an intriguing form. Next choose the plant that will fill the middle ground or space of the container and finally, a plant that will soften the container’s edge by growing over the edge like a cascading waterfall. We'll discuss color, texture, fragrance and how to put it all together in your plant masterpiece.
