On Wednesday, July 16, and Tuesday, July 29, Rowan County Extension Master Gardeners will conduct Plant Propagation Workshops, 9 a.m. until noon at the Agricultural Center on Old Concord Road.
The classes will be held under the Outdoor Learning Center next to the greenhouse. Space will be limited to the first 15 to call and register. Phone the Cooperative Extension office at 704-216-8970. There is a fee of $15 for materials and supplies.
This is the 12th year for this popular workshop. With many of us losing perennial shrubs in last winter’s harsh cold, this will be an excellent time to start fresh with new varieties from someone else’s plant which did survive. With the way participants and Extension Master Gardeners bring quantities of cuttings, there will be enough for everyone to share.
