LAWRENCEVILLE: GCMGA Monthly Meeting - Hydrangeas 101 - Back to Basics

Bethesda Senior Center, 225 Bethesda Church Road, Lawrenceville, GA. Have you tried growing Hydrangeas? Are you confused about old wood, new wood? Pink or blue? Sun or shade? How much to water? In this talk, Jennifer Petritz will demystify hydrangeas once and for all! Learn about the four major types of hydrangeas you are likely to find at your local garden center, and how to plant and care for them to ensure a bounty of blooms. Jennifer is a horticulturist with deep roots in the Atlanta area. She currently serves as president of the American Hydrangea Society and has served as an AHS board member in various roles for 8 years. She had a previous career in public horticulture at the Atlanta Botanical Garden and the Atlanta History Center. GCMGA meetings are free and open to the public. If you would like to join us for dinner, please come at 6:30 and bring a dish to share.
