Divide and Conquer: Making More Plants

Divide and Conquer: Making More Plants

Whether your perennials don’t bloom like they used to or they’ve staged a coup on your house, it’s important to know how to divide them. This hands-on workshop will turn participants into plant-splitting pros. Jean Starr, of Chicagoland Gardening Magazine and Petaltalk: The Blog©, will offer tips and techniques for digging, dividing and re-planting perennials like iris, hosta, daylilies and more. This class takes place in Taltree’s classroom, 71 North 500 West, Valparaiso.
