Hanging Basket Masterclass at Squire’s

 

Squire’s Garden Centres are running their very popular “Large Summer Hanging Basket” planting masterclass on Friday 18th May at 10am and 2pm.

 

Hanging baskets can make a real statement in your garden and give you loads of pleasure. Squire’s gardening experts will show you how to line a large basket with moss, then position a selection of upright and trailing plants, as well as a centrepiece plant. You will also be taught some simple tricks so that your plants should bloom for months on end!

 

The masterclass is suitable for everyone, from gardening novices to the more experienced gardener. It also makes a great gift experience for friends and family.

 

Tickets are £25 and include everything you need to make your hanging basket – the tuition, basket, moss, compost, and all plants. The masterclass lasts around an hour then you’ll get tea or coffee and cake in Squire’s Café Bar, and 10% off any other plants you purchase on the day!
