Soil Health class on Zoom for the Highland Park Garden Club on April 16 at 10:00am
Vibrant plants and gardens start with healthy soil. This presentation will include a little science, but will mostly cover practical aspects of the why and how of soils. The components of soil; testing, amending, and the reasons; soil chemical composition, and how to change soil pH - these are all important for nutrient and micronutrient availability in gardens and containers. The presentation will also cover container gardening tips on how to keep containers (like the club-maintained Bryant Street planters) healthy and happy throughout the season, including moisture retention, amendments, incorporating nativar selections that yield multi-season interest along with the usual annuals.
