January 30 @ 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm
We had to cancel the January 27 meeting due to the residues of the snow/ice storm in the Hill Country. But Kathy Saucier, our Gillespie County resident Certified Wildscape instructor, will still make a live presentation on YouTube on January 30 at 3:00 pm.
“Do you see those tiny rosettes that are nestled against the earth? Each one is soaking up sunshine.”
A closer look under the fallen stems and leaves of last year’s wildflowers and grasses reveals that many new plants have already germinated and are showing their first and second sets of leaves.
“Each one is converting winter moisture into the wondrous explosion of color that makes the Hill Country famous for its wildflower display” Saucier said. What you don’t see is what the plant will produce. Will it be a plant you desire or one you are trying to control?
During this evening presentation, Saucier will open our eyes to the variety of rosettes that are the opening scene of summer’s perennials. She will also identify which of those rosettes is a weed. Join us January 30. Click the Live event below.
