This class is for the absolute houseplant novice as well as successful outdoor gardeners who dabble with houseplants and find limited success. There is a houseplant that will work for every person, the trick is to discover which ones work best for you and your environment. We will consider why certain plants tend to be more difficult and ways to remedy challenging houseplant situations. Usual challenges within our homes will be addressed (hello kittens & air vents!) and solutions will be discussed. We will examine the most commonly found houseplants as well as some exciting easy care rare plants.
There will be an in-depth presentation of various soils and additives, along with a repotting chat and demonstration. Each participant will leave the class with a basic knowledge of houseplant care as well as specific solutions to become a confident houseplant keeper.
Capacity is limited, so reserve your spot today!
Additional Information: This class will take place in person at Huntsville Botanical Garden. Location information will be provided via email to registrants, the week of the class.

About Your Instructor:
Holly Hinton is the proprietor of Cope Plant Shoppe. In addition to running her retail shop, she presents workshops and lectures with a focus on houseplants. Cope launched five years ago with the purpose of community building and the desire to learn more about houseplants. Many plants have perished and thrived throughout this journey and Holly’s passion for houseplants has grown in wonderful ways.
One year ago Holly moved to Huntsville from the Nashville area with her husband and three children. The family also includes a chinchilla named Michael, three dogs, Amya the cat, several praying mantises, and a slew of tropical fish and miniature shrimp. In addition to collecting houseplants, Holly enjoys crocheting Japanese Amigurumi stuffed animals, and reading British design magazines. She is a nearly life long vegetarian and loves to shop for vintage housewares and furniture almost as much as she loves cake.
