Program description: I offer more than 12 different perennial gardening and landscaping lectures. A list of topics is on my web page, www.pyours.com/speaking-services. All presentations are accompanied by PowerPoint and handouts. I am 'passionate perennialist' that enjoys mixing humor with practical information for creating low-maintenance, high impact perennial gardens and landscapes that audiences find entertaining, uplifting, and educational. My presentations focus on time-saving gardening designs and techniques; workhorse plants; and organic approaches to lawns and gardens. I have published two gardening books. My first, The Ultimate Flower Gardener's Top Ten Lists, was released in March 2010 with more than 3,000 books already sold. More about these books is on my web site at www.pyours.com/books.
