This small-group workshop session is geared toward home gardeners who wish to learn practical techniques for making more plants using several methods, including division, propagation, and seeding. Mal Condon, Heritage’s Curator of Hydrangeas, will lead this program and while hydrangeas will be the focus of this demonstration, these practices can be applied to many other woody ornamentals you would plant on Cape Cod. During this hands-on experience, participants will prepare and “strike” their own cuttings and take them home, along with provided rooting mix, to nurture and develop into well-rooted plants.
There will be plenty of ongoing time for questions and discussion and following the program, you’ll receive a PDF file via email containing presentation content for your reference. Advance registration is required, and we expect this popular program to sell out.
This program will take place rain or shine. In good weather, much of it will take place outdoors. In the event of inclement weather, the program will be held fully indoors inside the Heald Center at the J.K. Lilly III Automobile Gallery. In either weather situation, we will meet and conclude our session indoors.
Program fees fund Heritage’s mission to inspire people of all ages to explore, discover, and learn together. Thank you for your support.
