Out of an abundance of concern for the well being of our guests and community, and in keeping with the CDC’s guidance to practice social distancing, we are cancelling all assembled group activities and events from March 13 through April 22, which includes all classes originally scheduled during that time. Ticket buyers will be contacted with information about receiving a refund.

From the gigantic blooms and putrid smelling inflorescence of the Titan arum to the striking ombre of a calla lily and everything in between, the aroid family or Araceae has an abundance of weird and wonderful plants worth growing. Bridget Wosczyna, a local aroid enthusiast, shares the tips and techniques that have made her a top grower of unusual aroids. Discuss their proper planting and cultural care. Bridget demonstrates and provides hands-on experience of the best way to propagate aroids for your own collection and to share the bounty these incredible plants offer as standouts in the landscape. Learn about both hardy and non-hardy species and take home a tuber from the class for your own garden.
