Botany for Gardeners

Don’t go dormant this winter! Join us as we learn basic plant morphology and terminology–knowledge that will help you better understand plant growth and take some of the guesswork out of gardening. In this hands-on class, you’ll learn why some shrubs are pruned immediately after flowering while others are pruned in late winter/early spring; how to tell a pine from a spruce and why it matters; the reasons behind the differing watering practices for turf and trees, and other common gardening questions.
