Succulents in Containers at Falkirk: Thrillers, Fillers and Spillers...A Demonstration

Master Gardener and Succulent expert Jessica Wasserman will demonstrate how to build an attractive and beguiling container filled with succulents.  Using mostly recycled or repurposed containers, Jessica will illustrate and discuss the essential elements involved in creating an interesting container garden (such as design, soil mixture, color, balance, texture and caretaking concerns.)

Jessica Wasserman is a highly respected local Bay Area speaker with expertise in succulents and Carnivorous Plants.  She is also a member of the Marin Bonsai Club.

The demonstration containers will be raffled off following the talk!
