Speaker: Janet Macunovich, an Advanced Master Gardener who has
designed, planted and maintained perennial gardens and landscapes for 35 years.

A calendar that shows week by week peak bloom of perennials, shrubs, vines and trees may seem to be all a designer needs to assemble a winning group of plants. Yet even the finest assembly can be refined to jewel quality through smart plant placement, planting and care. Use practical tips from this presentation and you'll learn to let each month's signature flower cue you to do what's best for that time toward maximum color. You'll garden at peak performance all year, from evaluating the size of beds and plant groups in March to routinely taking some plants "off exhibit" each October.
