Plant Problems? Ask Garth (Cancelled)
July 27 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm
Are yellow, wilting, puckered, or folding leaves getting you down? Is Google simultaneously telling you that you’re under and over-watering? Enter our staff expert, Garth, to assess, and accurately diagnose your plant problems in real-time, and provide recommendations to resolve the issues. You’ll gain the tools to help you identify any more problems you may encounter in the future and even learn how to prevent them when possible.
Students are encouraged to bring photo samples of up to two different plant issues for Garth to help identify. To prevent spread, please do not bring live samples of the plant(s).
