Event Details
Our guest speaker, Mary Shearman Reid, will talk to us about growing and caring for vines. Vines can be versatile – up, down and over – adding a different dimension to your garden. Some are aggressive – some are slow to take hold. You can probably find one for most tastes: ornamental, native, winter interest and edible. We’ll look at their history as well as those varieties that are popular nowadays.
