Planting for Success
Presented by Mary Ann van Berlo
We have one chance to get our plants off to a good start – so planting them properly is highly important. Much research and observation have changed the recommendations for the planting of trees and shrubs as well as perennials. Mary Ann will tell us why root washing and root pruning are important steps to ensure the vigour and longevity of your transplant. She’ll also explain why staking and amending the soil in the transplant hole no longer recommended.
Also Member Flower Show (see here for details).
I can’t make it to the meeting but I would have liked some explanation about the goings-on at the Board in early April. Glossing over things isn’t helpful and if they have a bearing on the direction of the society, the members have a right to know.
FYI: Good link I heard about on CBC this morning:
