SUMMARY:Webinar: Plant Switcheroos for More Beautiful, Hardy Flower Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Webinar: Plant Switcheroos for More Beautiful, Hardy Flower Gardens\nSaturday, February 21\n11 am-12 pm\nThis eye-opening presentation will take the guesswork out of which perennials and flowering shrubs are the best choices, especially for more challenging growing conditions.  You simply cannot tell if a plant is a great performer year after year by looking at a pretty picture or attractively maintained inventory at garden centers.  For over 30 years, Kerry has trialed hundreds of plants.  She’s excited to share her results, as well as those of other reliable plant trials.  Some of the “winners” may surprise you!  Plus, she’ll feature outstanding alternatives to commonly grown plants that are heavy re-seeders, short-lived, aggressive spreaders, or disease or insect prone; native plants to replace exotics; and more. This program is best suited for gardeners in hardiness Zones 3-8.\nKerry will show you:\n\nLong-blooming, pollinator-friendly perennials requiring no deadheading, unlike many commonly sold varieties\nOutstanding alternatives to favorite perennials that are short-lived, disease-prone, rapid-spreading, aggressive re-seeders, or stake-requiring\nNo-prune or rarely pruned glamorous flowering shrubs\nFantastic stalwarts for dry shade\nReplacing exotic plants with natives that have similar-looking flowers\nand much more\n\n \nProgram registration fee: $15.95\nClick on this link ( https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/1017646863719/WN_53qu--YDQSSr036qh5q1VA#/registration ) for more information and to register. When you use this link to register for the program, Heritage Museums & Gardens will receive a portion of the proceeds!
