Shade Garden: Wonderful Colours Year Round
Join renowned garden expert Marion Jarvie for an inspiring exploration of shade-loving plants and the quiet magic they bring to the garden. Drawing on decades of experience, Marion will share how these sparkling treasures — from the earliest days of spring through late fall — can surprise and delight throughout the entire growing season.

You’ll learn about plant selection, culture, and hardiness for our region, and how to transform shaded spaces into lush, thriving highlights of your garden.
