  • Friday, April 30, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm – Perennial Propagation Workshop

    Learn how to make more flowers from one little plant or batch of bulbs to expand your spring garden, at this April 30 Wright-Locke Farm workshop from 2 – 3 at the Farm in Winchester.

    Ferriss Donham will demonstrate how to divide muscari (grape hyacinth bulbs) and primula (primula vulgaris). You will divide your own in class as she assists. These perennials can be planted into your spring garden to bloom for many years to come, with the acquired knowledge of how to divide and share them in the future. Both plants make lovely fragrant cut flowers for a spring bouquet. As the dividing process can get a little messy, please be prepared to get some dirt on your hands! Free with suggested tiered donations (ages 18 and up) – Register HERE.
