July Lecture - Moonlight Gardens

The Williamson Garden Club presents
Moonlight Gardening
By Master Gardener Mary Moss Sprague

Moonlight gardening -no, this is not something you do after your day job! But if you need a quiet garden to soothe the stresses after a long hard day, nothing brings the problems down to size better than a fragrant moonlight garden of white and pale colored flowers and foliage that literally glow in the dark.

Don't just think of flowers that shine at night. Foliage plants can do the same, or scent the air. Paths with thyme or mint growing between the stones or along the edges are scented as you bruise the leaves along the way. Variegated leaves with white predominating brighten up the area with their reflective glow.

The Williamson Garden Club is pleased to announce that Master Gardener Mary Moss Sprague will present a talk detailing the facts about moonlight gardens.

This free public presentation will take place Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 7 p.m. in the community room of the Williamson Free Public Library.
