DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED!\n\nAt some point\, almost every 
 gardener wants more—more space for plants\, more kinds of plants\, more ti
 me to work in the garden\, and a longer season to enjoy it. This symposium
 \, for both the professional and amateur gardener\, will explore innovativ
 e ways to temporally and spatially stretch a garden’s capacity. You can cr
 eate a spectacular landscape that lasts well beyond our region’s May-to-Oc
 tober leafy season\, and your garden spaces can break the confines of conv
 entional planting styles. Using examples from both small and large gardens
 \, our speakers will focus on the best plants for multi-season interest\, 
 techniques for “fall-scaping” and “winter-scaping\,” creative strategies t
 o “borrow” and make better use of space\, and how to improve transitions b
 etween garden areas. \n\nSpeakers and talks include:\nVirginia Small: Desi
 gn Strategies from Great Gardens\nJohn Greenlee: Ornamental Grasses and Se
 dges in Seasonal Design\nStephanie Cohen: Fallscaping—Extending Your Garde
 n Season\nNancy Rose: Great Trees and Shrubs for the ‘Other’ Six Months\nA
 n author book-signing will follow the talks.  \n\nSheraton Framingham Hote
 l\, Framingham MA\n\nFee $89 member\, $105 nonmember (includes continental
  breakfast and buffet lunch)\n\nExtending the Garden in Time and Space is 
 co-sponsored by the New England Wild Flower Society\,the Arnold Arboretum 
 of Harvard University\, and Wellesley College Friends of Horticulture.
