SUMMARY:Emergence of the 18th-Century English Landscape Garden 
DESCRIPTION:| 			\n			\n							 \n\n\n\nJoin Advanced Master Gardener Susan Hagen for an engaging exploration of the 18th-century English Landscape Garden\, a style that emerged in artistic opposition to the formality of Baroque design.  \nThis illustrated presentation examines the influential work of architects such as William Kent\, Lancelot “Capability” Brown\, and Humphry Repton\, and highlights iconic landscapes including Rousham\, Stowe\, and Chatsworth Garden.  \nLearn how these landscape designers promoted expansive\, natural styles that opened the garden to the broader countryside\, freeing the borders and expanding the views. \nInstructor: Susan Hagen \nSusan Hagen retired as professor of medieval literature and from serving as associate provost of Birmingham-Southern College in August 2017. Since then\, she has focused her energies on her blog\, “After Eden\,” which investigates the cultural and horticultural significance of gardens. She has also published nature-centered poetry in the collection Shall We Dance? with Antrim House Books. Additionally\, as an Advanced Master Gardener\, she has been active in giving presentations on native plants\, pollinators\, and international gardens.   \nLocation: Hodges Room  \n\n\n          \n \nBecome a Friend of the Gardens and join us in our mission to protect\, nurture\, and share the wonders of Birmingham Botanical Gardens.

SUMMARY:Spring Container Gardening
DESCRIPTION:| 			\n			\n							 \n\n\n\nCreate a beautiful spring container garden to take home in this hands-on workshop with Gardens’ Horticulturist Terry Phillips. You will learn about standout plants for spring containers and simple care tips\, then design your own planter using the classic “filler\, thriller\, spiller” approach. Please bring your garden gloves! $35 supply fee included. \nInstructor: Terry Phillips\nTerry Phillips serves as the new horticulturist for Kaul Wildflower Garden. He jokes that before he began studying ecology and working at various nurseries around Birmingham\, he could probably identify only poison ivy\, thanks to his Boy Scout training. He has since worked at Andy’s Creekside Nursery\, Shoppe\, and Leaf & Petal. These experiences transformed his “plant-blindness” by helping him become knowledgeable and appreciative of plants. “Native flora and ecology are something I care deeply about\, and getting to work in the Kaul Wildflower Garden is definitely a dream job!” he said. \nLocation: Adventure Classroom \n\n\n          \n \nBecome a Friend of the Gardens and join us in our mission to protect\, nurture\, and share the wonders of Birmingham Botanical Gardens.

SUMMARY:Got Sun? Grow Food!
DESCRIPTION:| 			\n			\n							 \n\n\n\nThink you need a big backyard to grow vegetables? Think again! Learn how to grow fresh veggies in any sunny spot—from suburban gardens to patios and balconies. Advanced Master Gardener Karen Mitchell will discuss how to choose the best vegetables for your space and inspire you with easy\, rewarding options for a spring and summer garden. Perfect for beginners and small-space gardeners. \nLocation: Adventure Classroom \nInstructor: Karen Mitchell\nKaren Mitchell retired from AT&T in 2008 after 31 years. She was certified as a Master Gardener in 2009\, and her first project was spearheading the initial planting of the Hand in Hand Children’s Garden at United Ability of Birmingham. She is very interested in growing vegetables (where sun permits) in small spaces\, in raised beds\, or any container she deems fit. In past years\, Karen chaired the vegetable booth at the Friends of Birmingham Botanical Gardens’ Spring Plant Sale\, and deems herself a vegetable gardening evangelist. Karen also loves hydrangeas and is the past president of the Alabama Hydrangea Society. Concerns for watering hydrangeas and other plants during drought motivated her to install hose-end irrigation tubing with adjustable emitters to water plants at their base. \n\n\n          \n \nBecome a Friend of the Gardens and join us in our mission to protect\, nurture\, and share the wonders of Birmingham Botanical Gardens.
