Unveiling the Wonders of Gardening: The Know to Grow Webinar Series 

PHS is delighted to present the Know to Grow Webinar Series, a vibrant and inclusive program designed to nurture your love for gardening. This reimagined lecture series welcomes everyone, from seasoned gardeners to those with a budding curiosity about the plant world. 

Join PHS for the third webinar in this series, with tropical plant expert Marianne Wilburn. Marianne will discuss how to plant, care for, and overwinter tropical plants to maximize and sustain your beautiful garden accents. Marianne will use five memorable categories and a host of strategic design tips, as well as focus on some spectacular examples that are simple to grow and much easier than you think to keep through the cold months.
