    We are thrilled to host Stephanie Hurman, a professional gardener for the last 25 years currently working at Artistic Landscaping.  She will be sharing her expertise in a question and answer session. 

    Stephanie’s desire to share knowledge and experience means there’s no such thing as a silly gardening question!

    She worked for many years with the Royal Horticultural Society at the gardens in Wisley, England, holds her BSc from the University of Toronto and a Post Graduate Diploma from the British Academy of Garden Design.  

    She is a plant-focused garden designer who uses her technical and horticultural knowledge to create eclectic collections that will thrive in the space they occupy.

    Please send us your gardening or in-door plant questions prior to our program to
