We hadn’t visited the Master Gardeners Demonstration Garden this year and dropped by late the other day. As it does this time of year, it’s looking good. This is a view of a small portion of the garden devoted to grasses.
The Master Gardeners program trains interested participants in all aspects of horticulture. The program’s devotion shows in the many plants, shrubs, and trees on display in the garden.
There are many examples of plants that do well in our environment. The garden has signage labeling most of the plants a visitor sees in its groves and along trails.
In normal years the Master Gardeners have plant sales and frequent educational seminars through the growing season. Weekly clinics are open to locals who have gardening problems and need an expert’s guidance. These public events have been cancelled for now.
I’ll show you more of these delightful gardens in the coming days.
Hello Kay,
The garden looks like a beautiful place to visit. It is good to learn from an expert what plants grow well in your garden. It is nice they have the plant sales too. Take care, enjoy your day!
That’s something I would enjoy exploring. I’m always impressed with the way gardeners arrange plants so artistically.
Sound like a great program to familiarize you in what kind of plants, shrubs, etc. thrive in your area.
It looks as if you had the place to yourself!
What a lovely place!
Looks such a lovely place, a good selection of photographs.
All the best Jan
I have really enjoyed your photos of the demonstration garden. I could do with something like that to help me figure out what to do with my vast patch.
