Kiki Danninger on Indoor Flowering Plants

December 7, 2021 @ 7:30 pm 10:00 pm

Guest Speaker: Kiki Danninger

Topic: Indoor Flowering Plants

Winter brings many things – the holidays, delicious meals, beautiful snow. It can also be rather dreary for gardeners. But take heart – we can still watch flowers bloom…indoors!

In this presentation, we’ll learn how to get houseplants to bloom through winter, beginning with popular flowering plants such as Phalaenopsis orchids, peace lilies, and anthuriums, plus some unusual and intriguing bloomers. We will also cover classic holiday plants like Christmas cactus, poinsettias, amaryllis, and cyclamen.

We will explore how light, water, temperature, and fertilizers contribute to the indoor success of flowering plants, and learn what each of these beautiful plants needs to thrive and re-flower.

Master Gardener Kiki Danninger is a floral and horticultural designer with an affinity for tropical plants and a keen eye for moss. Her curiosity for the earth and its interconnected place within all of our lives is what fuels her fascination for gardening. Seeking ways to make gardening accessible and to engage people in her love of “soul-to-soil,” she enjoys teaching practical, science-based techniques in plant care and propagation, with a special love for terrarium design and maintenance. This will be Kiki’s second presentation to our society.
