Join us in October as we learn how to design with bulbs, the Dixter way!
In this webinar, Fergus Garrett shows us how they create the stunning seasonal bulb displays at Great Dixter. He'll also share with us how they choose which bulbs to use, as well as how they decide which ones will be placed permanently in beds and borders and which ones will be displayed in temporary pot arrangements. The beautiful photos will inspire you to create stunning bulb displays right in your own garden.
Don't miss this exclusive opportunity to learn from one of gardening's leading experts!

HOW OUR WEBINARS ARE DIFFERENT (& BETTER!)
Our fireside chat format is different from other webinars in that we have the opportunity to interject questions and have conversations about the topics. In addition to your virtual front-row seat with well-known gardening experts, you'll get:
- The ability to submit your questions and comments in the Q&A
- Show notes emailed to you the day before so you can print them out and jot down your own notes in the margins
- After the event, you'll receive a follow-up email with updated show notes and a link to the webinar recording, along with a wrap-up of ideas and comments submitted by attendees. We call this the "wisdom of the crowd"—and these crowds are avid gardeners who always contribute great ideas. Click here for a sample follow-up newsletter from a past webinar.
