This eye-opening March 9 virtual lecture focuses on remarkable shrubs for front to mid-border gardens, as well as their pruning requirements. These stunning beauties also are ideal for over-wintering in containers. With an outlook on flower gardening that has evolved over the decades. In addition to practicing the latest earth-friendly practices and incorporating more natives, let’s shift our focus from perennials to shrubs that provide months of radiant color but are far less maintenance.
