April General Meeting

Mini Program: Martha White – Philanthropy Year End Update

Program: Is it a Horticultural Myth?

Dawn Standke will present.

It's easy to find gardening advice online - but how much of it makes sense? Join us for some Horticultural Myth Busting where we will cover topics including: Should I put banana peels on my plants? Do eggshells, Epsom salts or Tums cure blossom end rot on tomatoes? Will a “penny ball” drive away snails and slugs? Can copper nails kill trees? Should I put gravel in the bottom of a container to improve drainage? Are bananas slightly radioactive? Which plants can hurt me? Are green potatoes bad for me? What are some facts (not so fun!) about our new invasive mosquito species, the “ankle biter” or yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti?.
