Winter Sowing Native Perennials by Mary McDermott
Stockton University, Room F-111
November 18 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Sowing seeds in winter is a great way to expand your palette of native plants – and it’s easy, low cost, and lets you continue gardening in winter! Learn about cold stratification, seed choices, options for growing containers, over-winter care, and much more – just in time to plant your own seeds in December and January.
Mary McDermott is a self-professed “garden nerd” who loves experimenting with and learning about plants. Her property in Mays Landing has nearly 20 different garden areas, supporting a wide range of native insects, birds, and other animals. Propagating plants all year-round keeps these gardens full and vibrant – and affordable. Mary was a Master Gardener and instructor for over 15 years, and currently leads informal and formal presentations on propagation techniques, using research- and science-based methods.
DIRECTIONS to F-111 at Stockton University:
Park in parking lots 1, 2, or 3 and walk to the Campus Center Building. Go through the Center’s main doors straight through to the back entrance (past the fireplace) and exit to the walkway beyond. F-wing will be the building on your right. Enter that and turn right at the end of the hallway. F-111 will be on your right, across from the library.
