Fornari will speak about creating the perfect landscape for relaxing or entertaining in the evening hours. Attendees will learn about new plants, easy ways to enhance their porch or patio, and herbs and edible flowers that provide fragrance or cocktail ingredients. From creative containers to plants that attract hummingbirds, the Cape's Garden Lady will help get the spring season off in celebratory style. Her presentation will be followed by a wine reception and book signing of Coffee for Roses and The Cocktail Hour Garden.

C.L. Fornari is the author of eight books, a professional speaker, the host of GardenLine on
WXTK, and co-host of the Plantrama podcast. In 2015 she launched the first annual Cape Cod
Hydrangea Festival, a ten-day regional celebration of gardens that raised over $45,000.00 for
local non-profits in 2017. When she’s not at Hyannis Country Garden, she’s tending her own
plants at Poison Ivy Acres on Cape Cod.
