Adventures in Plant Propagation
All gardeners have plants we’d like a few more of—or lust after that special something in a friend’s garden. Join Barbara W. Ellis to learn a variety of plant propagation techniques that make sharing plants easy. Participants will learn easy techniques for starting seed indoors, as well as a practical and low-work method for starting seed of perennials and woody plants outdoors. The workshop will also cover seed collection and labeling. In addition participants will learn foolproof techniques for taking and rooting cuttings—from easy plants like tender coleus, to harder-to-root subjects such as shrubs. The workshop will also cover techniques for division, rooting suckers, layering techniques, and handling transplants. Registration required. Limit: 20
