LFP Garden Club: Gardening in Tough Spots

Christina Pfeiffer
horticulturist

On Tuesday April 9, 2019 the Lake Forest Park Garden Club will host Christina Pfeiffer talking on "Gardening in Tough Spots".

Every garden seems to have a spot where it is more difficult to keep plants thriving. This class offers practical tips on how to turn those spots around and determine best plant choices.

Common garden challenges including soil conditions, light levels, too much or too little moisture, root competition, slopes and tight spaces will be covered.

Christina Pfeiffer introduces herself:

Educated in landscape horticulture at Michigan State University and the University of Washington I have enjoyed a career working in public gardens, horticulture education and consulting that spans over 35 years.  Horticulture is my vocation, hobby, and passion.  

General meeting is from 9:15am to 10:30am, then a break for coffee and cookies. At 10:30am our speaker will talk.

We are located at LFP Town Center upper level, stage area. Ballinger Way NE and Bothell Way NE.

All are welcome to sit in to two free talks and then can join the club. The dues are $25 a year. Any level of gardening skill is welcome.

We meet from Sept to May each year. Special events include a summer potluck picnic, a Christmas party, and a potluck summer soiree with spouse and friend included.

There are occasional small outings. We have had bus trips when there is enough interest, to private gardens and nurseries.

Members get a great newsletter every month with really interesting information on our speakers, upcoming events and gardening tips.

Come one and all....
