Refresh Your Garden Design – Simple Strategies to Wake a Weary Garden

February 13, 2019 By Rebecca Sweet

With all of the buzzwords and trends in gardening these days, how do you know where to begin? Based off her new book, Refresh Your Garden Design, Rebecca takes a fresh approach to explain and simplify traditional design concepts for home gardeners of all levels.

Both practical and inspirational, you’ll learn how to break down traditional garden design principles into easy-to-understand and, more importantly, easy-to-implement solutions. Inspirational photographs highlight and reinforce real-life situations, helping you not only to identify what has gone wrong with your garden, but how to fix the problem.

In her Harmony in the Garden blog, Rebecca invites you further into her world of garden design, sharing tips, amusing observations and how-to videos for both the novice and experienced gardener.

Another of Rebecca's passions is to teach gardeners how to design like professionals. Leading talks and workshops on a variety of innovative, practical and fun horticultural subjects, her goal is to bring out the "hidden artist" which she believes lives in each and every person. Seeing the creativity lightbulb go off in someone's head, and hearing a murmured 'Ah-Ha!' in the audience is her ultimate reward.

With Rebecca's engaging and informative presentations, your group will walk away enlightened and energized to try their own hand at refining and designing their gardens.
