NEXT PROGRAM: GROWING DAHLIAS!

August 15, 10 am

Presenter: Karen Toole, owner of "And Flowers"

RSVP Date: Wednesday, August 12


Growing dahlias is fun and easy, even in our climate. Come learn about the steps and techniques for successfully building your own collection of dahlias. Karen grows them for weddings. She loves giving brides the opportunity to cut blooms for their bouquets.

The program will be held in the Highland Park neighborhood. To attend, please RSVP by emailing hpgcpgh@gmail.com by Weds, August 12. The exact address will be provided with a confirmation reply.

Free street parking is available close by on both Highland Avenue and Reservoir Drive.

Karen holds several art degrees, has designed two municipal parks, earned a Nation Green Infrastructure certificate, was a Penn State Master Gardener, and last year won a Phipps award for a sustainable garden that manages rain water. Karen owns And Flowers, a floral design business, and shares with clients the flowers that she grows on her property while gently teaching them about her sustainability concerns.
