Summer Perennial Container Workshop

Ashia Bunkley, Brookside Gardens Staff

Create a vibrant perennial container that thrives in sun and partly sunny conditions, bursting with year-round color. Craft a kaleidoscope of blooms and foliage using compact, hardy plants—salvia, dianthus, echinacea, heuchera, and more—chosen for heat tolerance, winter toughness, and potential deer resistance. You’ll love this planter, returning each year with radiant color.

NOTE: This in person event will take place in the Visitor Center Adult Classroom, located at 1800 Glenallan Avenue, Wheaton, MD 20902.
