While utilizing native plants in a garden makes sense for many reasons, they may not always be easy to source, but Wall Township has an event on offer that may make it a lot simpler.
Toadshade Wildflower Farm’s Randi Eckel, Ph. D will be facilitating a session that will explore a variety of techniques aimed towards anyone trying to grow native plants from seed. The function has proved to be popular enough for a second class to have been added to the schedule so that more learners can be accommodated.
Ticketholders will learn about how factors such as dormancy can affect seed germination, and they will discover how practices such as cold stratification and physical or chemical scarification may also be useful. They will be invited to ask the instructor questions, and everyone will go home with a potted up seed of a native species they can grow at home and eventually transplant to their own garden.
Gardeners are often eager to learn new skills and techniques, and a workshop gives that an opportunity to do so. A flyer printing company can help to get the word out about an occasion like this.
This introduction to the art of coaxing native perennial seeds to spring to life is scheduled for Sunday, February 4. The classes will begin at 10:00 am and 1:30 pm. The venue will be the Eastern Branch of the Monmouth County Library.
