with local gardener Robin Beaton
Gardening with annuals and perennials offers endless opportunities to create colourful and visually appealing landscapes. Successful garden design combines the strengths of both annuals and perennials, while thoughtful flower combinations create season-long interest and visual impact.
In addition to their ornamental value, many flowering plants and companion flowers in the vegetable garden support a healthy ecosystem by attracting pollinators, beneficial insects, and birds.
Drawing on her gardening experience and enthusiasm for plants, Robin will share practical ideas for growing annuals and perennials, creating successful flower combinations, and incorporating plants that enhance both the beauty and biodiversity of the garden.
