Does This Sound Familiar?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by garden design, unsure of where to start, or frustrated with borders that never look quite right — you’re not alone.

Maybe you’ve spent hours researching plant combinations, only to second-guess yourself at the nursery.

Or, you’ve poured money into random perennials that looked good in spring but left your border patchy by midsummer.

It’s exhausting... and it keeps you from enjoying the garden you’ve been dreaming of.

That’s why I created the Master the Mixed Border Mini Course: a simple, step-by-step system to help you get started quickly, build confidence and design a border that feels intentional and beautiful — without needing a full design plan or hiring a pro.

✔️ Perfect for beginners – No experience needed. You’ll finally have a clear place to start, without feeling lost or overwhelmed.

✔️ Exclusive hand-drawn illustrations – See exactly how each step works so you can confidently design your own border instead of guessing.

✔️ Real-world examples – Watch how mixed borders come together in my own garden and at stunning botanical gardens, so you can borrow proven ideas that actually work.

✔️ Bonus content that gets you planting – Learn the essentials of flower gardening plus my no-dig sheet mulching method so you can turn a blank space into a border right away.

✔️ Short, digestible content – Less than 2 hours of step-by-step video. Quick to watch, easy to follow and simple to put into action this weekend.

"The planting pyramid put everything into perspective for me. I was basically starting at the wrong end—thinking color, flowers, grasses. It was like trying to accessorize before I had decided on a dress!"

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from the free guide?

The free guide is a great starting point. This mini course brings the process to life with real-world examples, step-by-step video walkthroughs and professional insights you won’t get in a PDF. You’ll see the 8-step method in action in my garden, in student gardens and in stunning mixed borders across the U.S. You’ll also get bonus lessons to help you take action fast, including Flower Gardening 101 and a no-dig sheet mulching tutorial.

I live in X gardening zone/location. Can this course still work for me?

Absolutely. The course teaches design principles you can apply anywhere. You won’t get a fixed plant list — you’ll learn how to build a balanced mixed border and choose plants that fit your climate. Your zone tells you minimum winter temps so you can confirm if a plant will survive where you live. That’s plant selection, not design. This mini course gives you the design skills.

Do I need any special tools or software?

No. All you need is a notebook and the resources provided in this mini course. The process is about design, not complicated tools or apps.

What if my garden is small / large / not a “typical” border?

The method works in any size space. The steps can be scaled up for a large border or down for a small bed. The same design principles still apply.

Can I take this course if I already have some gardening experience?

Yes. Even experienced gardeners benefit from a clear system. Many students have said it gave them fresh ideas and helped them finally feel confident about their design choices.

How do I access the mini course content?

After purchase you’ll create a login and get immediate lifetime access. Watch at your own pace and revisit lessons any time you need a refresher.

Is this a one-time purchase or a subscription?

It’s a one-time purchase. Pay once and get lifetime access to all the lessons.

What if I'm unhappy with the course? Is there a guarantee?

Yes. If you don’t feel more prepared or you haven’t started planning your mixed border within 14 days, just email contact@prettypurpledoor.com and a full refund will be processed.

"I know a lot about plants, how to grow them, propagate them, what they require to thrive. What I found with your content is the art, the design principles. I really needed the visuals that you created to show me the art part. It was like unlocking a log jam. It seemed to be the piece I was missing. Thank you."
