Dispatch from Michelle McLeod, owner of Southwest Boulder & Stone:
What an education we received from Marilyn Guidroz of Marilyn’s Gardens Design.
On Saturday, September 18, in SWB’s gorgeous garden oasis under the shade, Marilyn presented an hour-long workshop on propagating succulents and building a living wall. She made it seem incredibly easy to grow your own succulents from just one small leaf! You just need the right kind of soil, a clean knife and a lot of patience to start a beautiful and diverse succulent garden. She also showed us how to make a vertical green wall of succulents or house plants using a specialized container, good soil, and plants. If life were only this easy….
We also want to thank Armstrong Nurseries for the Living Wall containers and RZ Nurseries for their beautiful succulents.
Be sure to join us for out next workshop: October 9th – Greg Rubin will be speaking on Drought Tolerant and Native Plants. You will go home both amused and inspired!
