Winter Tree and Shrub Care

Even though trees seem to be in a state of hibernation in the winter, not preparing them for the cold, dry winter months can have long term health effects.  Come learn what you can do to minimize stress so you will be rewarded again in the spring.  We will also discuss tips and timing on pruning dormant trees and shrubs for the best spring recovery and growth. 

Participants will receive native plant books, and several gift certificates from area nurseries will be given as door prizes.
