Sam Droege of the USGS is sharing his wealth of knowledge about North American Native Bees with Patuxent Nursery. These beneficial pollinators work a little differently than their non-native cousins, so it's important to know how to identify them and how to help support their populations in our area.
From what type of soils to use to what plants do best in our region, Kathy Jentz will cover the basics of growing successful container plantings. She will cover both ornamental and edible containers as well as the different styles and fashions in container gardening. Books signing to follow. One lucky attendant will win the container garden that Kathy designs during her talk!
