Jenna Zier will be your guide and is the Formal Garden Curator at Bayard Cutting Arboretum . She holds a MPS in Plant Science from Cornell University and is an ISA Certified Arborist.

This workshop includes an indoor presentation on the subject followed by an outdoor tour. The focus of this workshop is on the appropriate calendar and techniques for perennial cutbacks. Participants should dress appropriately for the weather. This event is rain or shine.
