Spring Roll Making Class

Botanically speaking, ‘bulbs’ is a collective name which tubers, corms and rhizomes alongside tulips and narcissi. This course covers how to plant spring flowering bulbs in the naturalistic style used by Van der Kloet and Oudolf: bulbs that are planted in autumn, go through a cold period in winter and start to flower in spring. The first lesson features all kinds of other spring flowering bulbs (except tulips) which can cheer up our gardens, from early to late spring, like snow drops, grape hyacinths and ornamental onions, to name a few.

Spring Flowering Bulbs with Perennials

Van der Kloet has worked alongside her compatriot, garden designer Piet Oudolf, to incorporate bulbs into New York City’s Battery Park which we feature in Piet Oudolf and Dr Noel Kingsbury’s latest course here at Learning with Experts.

Longevity is a kind of sustainability, and that may be one reason van der Kloet’s designs have caught on. Jacqueline has had commissions around the world, including a ten-acre renovation of beds at Holland’s Keukenhof, one of the largest ­public flower gardens in the world. The projects she’s done in the United States have met with resounding success. Van der Kloet collaborated with Oudolf again in Chicago’s Millennium Park in 2007, followed by a stint at the New York Botanical Garden’s Seasonal Walk, in 2008. TV host and author Martha Stewart unveiled her at her New York, home, which includes 116,000 bulbs, all in shades of blue and distributed by van der Kloet’s signature “sprinkling,” which means handfuls of bulbs are lovingly tossed onto the ground, to be planted where they fall.

Mothers Day Spring Dried Flower Wreath Making Workshop

We're sharing with you lucky people, probably the best Prosecco we've ever tasted...and we've tasted quite a few. Made in the traditional style - so the same way as Champagne - and Col Fondo, there's some of that all important yeast in there to taste. An amazing wine. If you want to impress your friends with your knowledge of this fashionable fizz - this is the tasting to come to.

We'll then head to the South of France to Provence to sample some rose/pink wines and probably taste it alongside some New World wines - just to see if the French really know a thing or two about wine making ;-)

We have to include white wines - we've found a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and a Sicilian Grillo that will knock your socks off. The Marlborough Sauv Blanc is the most drunk white wine in the UK but there are so many options out there - we'll consider "vintage variation" - you need to know about this!

In total we will be tasting at least 6 different wines to celebrate and welcome the English summer :-)

Embracing all the delights that Spring has to offer in this seasonal flower workshop we will guide you through how to create your own natural garden style table centre arrangement. The class will take place in the Dinning Room at Beckenham Place, a beautiful Georgian Mansion that overlooks the picturesque Beckenham Place Park.
The class will start off with conditioning the flowers whilst chatting about why this is important to do. How to care for your flowers and give them a longer vase life.  The class teacher will then demonstrate how to create a compote arrangement using a foam free method to create a natural garden style design. You will then get to choose your own beautiful ingredients with a variety of different flowers and textures to choose from and create your very own compote design! All materials are included along with useful handouts and the flowers and containers are of course yours to keep too. A scrummy slice of cake will also be available to enjoy whilst you create!
