Presentation - The All Seasons Garden by Sarah Hopps


On a cold and rainy afternoon, who better to motivate us than the enthusiastic and knowledgeable Sarah Hopps.  With plants and slides, Sarah showed us how we should look forward to the all the seasons in the garden starting with a framework for winter, spring bulbs and how to avoid the “August gap”.  We were also treated to slides of some fabulous gardens which Sarah has visited in various seasons as her role as tour guide.
