How to Shop a Nursery
Wednesday, April 22 2009, 6:00pm - 8:00pm

How to Shop a Nursery: A Professional's Tips on Selecting the Best
with Tom Ward, experienced plantsman and nurseryman

How to Shop a NurseryCourse highlights: Where do I find what I want to grow? How do I know which plant to buy? Putting in healthy plants is one of the keys to successful gardening and Tom Ward will share his many decades of experience in choosing the right plant. He'll talk about how to evaluate nursery stock when presented with dozens of seemingly identical plants, and how to put in that plant once it's purchased.
