Spring is here. Let's garden! Given the many available options of trees and shrubs, deciding what to grow can be overwhelming. Which ones are “best” and which ones should be avoided? Do you go completely native or are some non-native plants okay?
In this talk, Alison Arnold will share ideas on how to choose, plant and care for a selection of native and non-native trees and shrubs that grow well in our region. Plan to join us on Saturday, March 23, from 10:30 to 12 pm at MindSpring Consulting for this free presentation from a local expert.
Alison has more than 30 years of public horticulture experience. She is the Agriculture Extension Agent in Consumer Horticulture at the NC Cooperative Extension in Buncombe County and is responsible for education outreach, as well as training and coordination of the Extension Master Gardener Volunteer program.
This is one of several gardening programs that HCCA is hosting for our community this spring. Registration is not required but is encouraged as it helps us plan for a successful event.
