Description

Topiary is the practice of training any plant into a shape through careful and repeat manicuring. Topiary is also the plant that has been topiarized. At Landcraft Garden Foundation, we often assemble assorted classic topiaries (balls and cones) when building a tablescape for events. Singularly or in a group, nothing elevates display making as quickly as the topiary. Get the inside scoop on how to train a young houseplant cutting to a photo-ready tabletop topiary. One ball, two balls or three; cones, pillars, spirals and pompoms – learn to clip and shear the perfect form, then make your own. All attendees go home with a clay-potted topiary plant and the know-how to grow it strong. AGE: For Adult Audiences WEATHER: Rain or Shine SPECIAL NOTES: Please bring light working gloves and pruners. Comfortable shoes and socks, wide brimmed hats, sunscreen, insect repellant and water are also recommended. To be a source of healthy insects for our birds and other insect-feeding wildlife, we do not spray the gardens to manage ticks. Please take appropriate caution.
