About this Event

Discover the beauty of living design in this Living Succulent Candlestick Topiary Workshop at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. In this hands-on experience, participants will work with a hand-turned wooden candlestick, thoughtfully crafted as the base for a sculptural topiary created from their choice of homegrown succulents. This course blends artistry with horticulture, guiding students through the fundamentals of succulent care—including light, watering, soil, and long-term maintenance—while introducing design principles that bring balance, height, and natural flow to a vertical arrangement. Participants will select and compose their own living topper, creating a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects both personal style and the beauty of organic form. Perfect for beginners and plant lovers alike, this workshop offers a meaningful way to learn, create, and take home a lasting piece of living art.

Admission to the botanical garden is included in your registration ticket.
