My phone has been ringing all day with calls about how informative, witty, and simply “fun” your program was!

Planning Your Event
Chris keeps things simple for hosts — here’s all it takes.
Setup & A/V
- A TV or projector for slides — Chris can present right from his laptop, or bring a thumb drive, whichever is easiest for you
- Outdoors or under a tent, a TV usually shows the flowers best — bright sun can wash out a projector
- If you have room, a table or two near the speaking area for bulb and book sales & signing
- A volunteer or two to lend a hand with setup and sales is always appreciated
Format & Timing
- Talks run about an hour, plus Q&A — and Chris is happy to tailor the program to your group
- Mornings and early afternoons work best
- Evening events involve an overnight stay — just ask early and we’ll see what’s possible
