Sheila then introduced one of her most knowledgeable team members, Diana Burnett, saying, “Diana is my right hand and my rock. When it comes to flowers, plants, and shrubs, she is a walking encyclopedia.”
Diana instructed the group about creating an attractive, balanced, healthy container garden. Based on her expert information, several gardeners modified their plant choices or selected different containers. Each unique mini garden reflected the creator’s personality and every one was stunning.
