Plants for the Winter Garden Talk and Book Signing
Berkshire Botanical Garden
The winter garden is truly a low-maintenance affair — no weeding, no watering and no dead-heading! The winter landscape may be quiescent, but the garden need not be bleak. Plants with brightly colored berries, twigs, stems, foliage, and even winter-blooming flowers shrug off the snow and cold. They bring cheer, even as the sun enters Capricorn.
Landscape horticulturist Warren Leach, and author of the new book from Timber Press "Plants for the Winter Garden," will showcase gardens he has designed that celebrate the winter season as well as planting design ideas for your own garden on Saturday, Sept. 20, from 10 a.m. to noon. (Book signing to follow the talk)
For more than 35 years, Warren Leach has been creating beautiful landscapes throughout New England as well as making captivating and educational display gardens as co-owner of Tranquil Lake Nursery in Rehoboth, R.I., a specialty nursery that is a prominent grower of daylilies, iris and distinctive perennials and woody plants. He is the author of “Plants for the Winter Garden” (Knopf).
