Sydney Eddison Reception

At The Library

The Garden Club of Newtown will host a reception and book signing with master gardener and author Sydney Eddison at C.H. Booth Library on Friday, April 4, at 7 pm.

Ms Eddison will begin the evening with a talk and slide presentation on “The Rainbow Contained,” during which she will talk about container gardening with an eye for color. Mrs Eddison will discuss why trying color schemes in manageable, movable pots and containers is a great way to experiment with color. It saves time and trouble, and provides for lots of flexibility.

Participants will learn about color compatibility, choosing containers, beginning a color scheme, as well as some great suggestions for foliage plants. After the talk Mrs Eddison will have a book signing, followed by refreshments provided by the garden club.

There is no charge to attend, but reservations are requested. The library, at 25 Main Street in Newtown, can be reached at 426-4533.
