Garden Basics: Why Is My Plant Looking Unhealthy?—A Hands-on Workshop About Diagnosing Plant Problems
Trinity Episcopal Church 1118 Preston Avenue, CharlottesvillePlant problems are often linked to a disease-causing organism or less-than-ideal growing conditions. This free, hands-on workshop will offer a systematic approach to uncovering the cause of a plant’s problems, as well as examples of common plant problems in Virginia. Participants are encouraged to bring samples from their own gardens for the class to examine and diagnose — BUT NOT BOXWOOD SAMPLES.
Due to the hands-on nature of this class, space is limited. Registration closes at 5 p.m. July 14 or when the class is full. Garden Basics is a partnership with the Bread and Roses ministry at Trinity Episcopal Church.
