topic of the articles

Meredyth Hilton knows gardens – she’s green and gifted! Plus, she’s an excellent teacher. Hilton’s five-week course will get you zinging into spring with a garden design you prepare yourself and ready to turn into reality.

“Our students learn the basics of garden design and plant placement,” said Hilton, a master gardener. “They bring the dimensions of their property and step by step come up with a scale drawing of their garden design that they can prepare and plant themselves or hire someone to do for them.”

The two hour classes are fun, and enable students to explore their personal design style and their likes and don’t likes in terms of use of space and particular plants. Hilton, of Hilton Design Department , is also is an owner of Artistic Gardens, an award-winning company with hundreds of stunning gardens to its credit throughout the GTA. Her teaching expertise includes stints at Centennial College, too.

And every sessions ends with a selection of hors d’oeuvres with wine!

Design Department is a design space and store in midtown Toronto that offers curated items including repurposed and refocused elements to enhance living space, as well as workshops and design classes. Combining new and old, the store offers unique decorative objects such as vintage prints, antique vases and custom-made cushions, as well as a selection of tropical plants and terrariums.
