Presented by Pat Sullivan
How do you make any garden feel more expansive? What tricks and techniques can you use to visually enlarge a small garden? Pat Sullivan will show you the way. Come learn more about creating destinations in your garden, adding mystery (and not the mystery of why that plant died), and other elements of garden design used to expand and utilize even tiny gardens. Whether your garden is big or small, you will gain ideas to play with in your own outdoor living space.
