Growing Low-Maintenance Perennials

On Thursday, I attended the Horticulture magazine online workshop (webinar).

The presenter was Kerry Mendez from Perennially Yours (pyours.com).

The topic was "Growing Low-Maintenance Perennials."

The sponsor was Osmocote.

We learned about a great many perennials, including some of my own favorites like Pig Squeak, Siberian Iris, Epimedium, Hellebore, Solomon's Seal, Echinacea, Yarrow, Agastache, Sneezeweed, Butterfly Weed, Swamp Milkweed, Rudbeckia, Culver's Root, Clematis, Miscanthus, and Sedum.

There was Q&A at the end, with questions about intersectional peonies, plants for wet shade, coral bells, Amsonia, plants that should not be fertilized, Solomon's Seal, Sweet Autumn Clematis, and Hellebores.

Informational and well-worth attending.
