Unleash the hidden potential of your outdoor sanctuary as we delve into the art of creating captivating garden rooms using pots and majestic plants. In this one-of-a-kind class, join Marylee Pangman, our Desert Potted Garden Expert, as she delves into the realm of large trees, shrubs, and resilient plants that thrive in our challenging desert climate – in pots.

Discover how strategically placed pots can effortlessly divide your patio, granting each area its distinct personality and purpose. Learn the art of cleverly concealing unsightly objects and ensuring privacy from prying eyes. Escape to your very own secret hideaway, a serene retreat created exclusively for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Marylee’s book, “Getting Potted in the Desert,” is available for purchase in the TBG Gift Shop or can be shipped to your home by calling Christine at 520-326-9686.

Marylee Pangman

Marylee Pangman founded The Contained Gardener in 1998 as a niche business in the desert community of Tucson, Arizona.  

Since then, Marylee has been compelled to share all that she has learned about container gardening over 20 years of blistering summers and record breaking winters.  Marylee sees container gardening as a way to have an oasis garden while conserving water as the demands of pots are far less than heavily planted areas and beds.  You can find Marylee’s book, “Getting Potted in the Desert” at the Garden’s Gift Shop.  This excellent resource includes a month-by-month planning guide, ideas for creating and caring for potted gardens, advice on container selection, and much more. https://thepotteddesert.com
