MONDAY, AUGUST 3 – Join us tonight for the third evening in our series of three GET GARDENING events. SCOTT CALHOUN visits to sign and discuss his volume, DESIGNER PLANT COMBINATIONS: 105 STUNNING GARDENS USING SIX PLANTS OR FEWER, at 7:00 PM. Put plants together in your own backyard using the best combination ideas from design professionals across the United States. More than 100 stunning gardens inspire you to mix and match your favorite plants with confidence. Spark your garden-design creativity with proven groupings, test-planted and enjoyed by the experts. It’s easy when every combination uses no more than six different plants! The exciting ensembles include a variety of textures, colors, and seasonal displays. You will find chapters devoted to Perennial Partners, Masses of Grasses, Annual Acquaintances, and Ground Cover Groupies. There are plants for every preference and colors for every season, with alternatives for various climates. Choose your favorite and plant it as a gorgeous focal point in your garden or as a splash of fresh color in a small space. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10 – One of very favorite authors, LISA TUCKER, visits to sign and discuss her haunting new novel, THE PROMISED WORLD, at 7:30 PM. Suicide by police, the inexplicable bond shared between twins, and the mysterious history of one family are the elements that propel this mesmerizing tale from a masterful storyteller. This remarkable novel – engrossing and highly suspenseful – is a new “gothic” read for the modern world. |
