Celebrate the unique region of WNC with four season plantings for your property. We will discuss the vast biodiversity here in the Blue Ridge Mountains while goal-setting for your personal garden-scape.  Explore bulbs, tubers, perennials, direct-seeding, and select shrubs and trees to extend your gardening interests into each season. There will be ample time for questions, answers and discussion.

A fascination and excitement for growing and arranging flowers has been central to Rachel Brownlee’s experience as a floral designer for over 20 years. Working from her property in Western North Carolina, Brownlee enjoys growing the majority of material she uses in her designs with an emphasis on promoting the special delights of seasonal flora.

A background in sustainable agriculture and fine-gardening complement a desire to work with the native landscape to create unique, regionally significant bouquets and centerpieces while promoting habitat for pollinators, migratory birds and wildlife in her home gardens.
