Lectures

Monica Moran Brandies

Topic: "Sustainable Gardening"

Thursday, September 25, 7 p.m., Learning Center Auditorium

All of the air we breathe, the water we use and drink, and the soil from which we get our food is recycled from the beginning of time. So why should we be surprised to know that we can have a sustainable garden, and that it is actually easier than using all the methods that damage the environment? Monica Moran Brandies calls it “Common Sense Gardening” and she has been doing it for years in several states. In the course of one evening you can move from being part of the planet’s problems to being part of the solution. Information: www.ambler.temple.edu/culturalseries.

Stephanie Cohen

Topic: "Native Perennials: Sustainable, Colorful and Wonderful"

Wednesday, October 29, 7 p.m., Learning Center Auditorium

Join Stephanie Cohen, the “Perennial Diva,” who delights with her vast knowledge and vibrant pictures of native plant gardening. Her humorous style draws you in, but her encyclopedic base of knowledge will captivate you. Cohen, Founding Director of the Landscape Arboretum, will focus on native perennials in landscape designs and plants that attract beneficial wild birds and butterflies. Her designs are imaginative and ingenious yet easy to do. Information: www.ambler.temple.edu/culturalseries.
