Easy Flowers to Grow, Cut, and Arrange

Do you love having flowers in your home but feel overwhelmed at the thought of creating and maintaining a cut flower garden? If so, then this class is for you!

In the class you’ll learn about flowers and foliage that are beautiful and easy to grow. We'll talk about where to find plants and how to grow, harvest, and condition them. You'll get familiar with their textures, shapes, aromas, and color combinations as you weave them into your own beautiful vase arrangement to take home and enjoy.

Some guidelines for your design will be suggested, but you’ll be encouraged to experiment, free of rigid formulas and rules. Every floral design is gorgeous, and there are no mistakes!

For this class we’ll be using flowers grown locally at Gruler Gardens, where different flowers bloom each week throughout the season. Selection varies and may include a mix of annuals, perennials, herbs, and native plants.

Flowers, foliage, glass vase, and all tools and supplies provided. For inspiration, visit http://www.grulergardens.com/flowergallery

Note: Flower selection at class time will likely vary from what is pictured.
