Garden Spark: Loree Bohl presentation
Loree Bohl presents Garden Fearlessly: Inspiration for Creating a Garden Youll Love, or Reinventing the One Youve Got
Description: If your garden doesnt bring you joy, what is the point? It sounds so simple, but sometimes we forget that pleasing ourselves is reason enough to do something. Thankfully our gardens are not static; we can reinvent them to suit our ever-changing needs and desires. In this example-rich talk Loree will share ideas for how you can go about creating a garden you love. She will share photos from her own Portland, Oregon, garden, as well as others from her garden travels. You will be inspired to see your garden through new eyes, take risks in garden design, and treat gardening as an adventure.
Speaker Bio: Loree is the creative force behind the popular blog Danger Garden, where she shares her love for agaves, cactus, and all things spiky, as well as a fondness for ferns and a good patch of moss. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Loree ranks garden travel high on her list of leisure pursuits as she enjoys exploring other regional gardening styles, how climates influence gardeners plant choices, and how those plants are grown. Loree is a firm believer that there is always room for one more plant.
Lorees first book, Fearless Gardening: Be Bold, Break the Rules, Grow What You Love, was published in early 2021. Loree has written for magazines such as Better Homes and Gardens, Fine Gardening, and Pacific Horticulture. Her home garden and design projects have appeared in magazines including Sunset and Old House Journal and in Pam Penicks books Lawn Gone! and The Water-Saving Garden. Her garden is also featured in the recently released book Private Gardens of the Pacific Northwest by Brian Coleman. Sharing her passion for plants and garden design is a driving force behind everything Loree does.
Includes: A 50-minute presentation, 10-minute Q&A, and book signing
