Roadhouse Nursery owner Jan Bahr will present information about water features, water gardens and fish ponds at noon Thursday, July 23, in the Clallam County Commissioner’ meeting room of the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.
Bahr will discuss the similarities and differences among the types of water features and provide tips on both construction and long-term maintenance.
This presentation provides basic information to make intelligent decisions about adding water as a design element in a home garden.
It will also give current water feature owners tips on how to make the pond-owning experience a pleasure rather than a chore.
Bahr is a certified professional horticulturist and has owned and operated Roadhouse Nursery in Poulsbo for 30 years where she has sold water garden plants and supplies for 28 years. She has helped many people learn about and enjoy their ponds through her business and as a speaker to garden clubs, koi clubs, Master Gardeners and nursery professionals.
This presentation is part of the “Green Thumb Garden Tips” brown bag series sponsored by the WSU Clallam County Master Gardeners on the second and fourth Thursday of every month in Port Angeles.
The lecture series provides home gardeners with education on gardening topics relevant to planting and maintaining sustainable gardens and landscapes in Clallam County.
Attendees may bring a lunch. The presentations are free and open to the public.
