Embrace the drama and elegance of the season in this Gothic-inspired container gardening workshop, where rich textures, moody tones, and sculptural plant forms come together in striking autumn compositions.
Set against the backdrop of October’s shifting light, this creative experience invites you to explore a darker, more atmospheric approach to container design.
Guided by expert instruction, learn how to select and combine plants, vessels, and accents that evoke a sense of mystery and refinement. Work with deep-hued foliage, architectural forms, and unexpected materials to create arrangements that balance bold contrast with subtle detail. Techniques in layering, scale, and composition will help you design containers that feel both cohesive and expressive.
Perfect for gardeners, designers, and creative enthusiasts alike, this workshop offers a fresh perspective on seasonal planting—encouraging you to craft containers that capture the beauty of autumn with a sophisticated, Gothic-inspired twist.
