Winter Container Gardening

Sunday, Oct. 25, 1 p.m., Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library

Have a Green Thumb or wish you did? Do you miss gardening in the long winter months? If you’ve answered yes to either of these questions, be sure to join us at the Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library on Sunday, October 25th at 1pm for Winter Container Gardening presented by Vivienne Dieckmann, Master Gardener with Cornell University Cooperative Extension of Rockland. This lively and informative presentation highlights valuable tips and easy techniques for growing ornamentals and miniature evergreens throughout the fall and winter. It will also demonstrate different methods of decorating the containers with branches, berries, and twigs for the holiday season. Through the use of live, winter-hardy plants and shrubs that have interesting texture and form, the winter container will provide long-lasting color through the cold, snowy months. Registration encouraged.

Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library is located at 25 Flywheel Park West, Piermont, NY
