Conifers: Indispensible Garden Plants

In her presentation, Marion will talk to us about how to incorporate conifers into a garden. Drawing on her years of experience designing gardens, as well as the creation and maintenance her own garden north of Toronto, Marion will highlight both the beauty and function of conifers in all types of gardens.
