The seventh annual Kathy Pufahl Memorial Container Design Competition was held July 20, 2010 at Cornell’s Bluegrass Lane Horticultural Research Facility, Ithaca, NY. Kathy (right), who founded Beds and Borders, Inc., Laurel, N.Y., was a staple on the horticultural educational seminar circuit, spreading her container ideas far and wide. It is her vision that changed the way the horticulture industry looks at the spring container business. Her influence brought back a bit of the art and beauty to the business.
