(R) Plant Care 101

(R) Plant Care 101

Brought to you by the Garden Club of Hackensack and Johnson Public Library.

Many people today are “plant blind”: they do not understand the basic anatomy or physiology of plants, so they make costly and frustrating mistakes in caring for them. This workshop covers the basics: watering, choosing the right plant for the site, planting, lawn care, and tree care.
