The Make-It and Take-It Container Garden Workshop will be at the
Cornelius Voss location with hands-on instruction by nursery manager
Eddie Russell, a Texas A&M University graduate with a degree in
Ornamental Horticulture. “Bring your own container with a drainage hole
or we will have an assortment of containers to purchase,” he said.
“We’ll supply the work space, tools, complimentary Calloway’s Premium
Potting Soil and even an application of Calloway’s Premium Plant Food.”
“Cornelius will showcase an assortment of plants that will make your
container garden look professional,” said Russell… “a thriller, a filler
and a spiller.” The thriller (the tall plant in the center) might be an
exotic orchid; fillers include the colorful cyclamen or vividly-hued
crotons and the spiller is usually a trailing ivy.”
The cost of fresh plants to fill your container will be in the range of
$20 to $55 depending on your selections and the size of your container.
Space is limited so please call 713-292-0898 to reserve a spot by
Friday, Feb. 11. Come early at 9 AM for coffee and to meet Texas Master
Certified Nursery Professional Eddie Russell and other Cornelius Nursery
experts.
