May 2018 Meeting: Succulents with Jada Hooks

Succulents are all the rage in the plant work right now. At our May meeting we got to pot up our own succulents under the tutelage of Jada Hooks of Jada's Garden and Greenhouse in Mount Horeb.

We brought our own small containers and Jada brought a selection of succulent plants to choose from. Each member purchased two 2-inch plants with additional plants available for an additional charge. Jada also supplied soil, pea gravel and moss to finish off our creations.

Members went home with lovely arrangements in a variety of containers from hypertufa to tea cups and more. What fun!














Jada Hooks has a degree in horticulture from UW-Madison and has worked with plants her entire life. She grew up on a dairy and pig farm near Plain, gardening with her mother as a child. Jada's Garden started about 15 years ago as a personal gardening and seasonal container business.  Her retail greenhouse and garden center opened in 2017 in Blue Mounds and is a full service greenhouse.  Visit Jada's Garden and Greenhouse website for more information including the 2018 class schedule and listing of special events.  www.jadasgarden.com
