Perennial Gardening Class Continues at Merryspring‏

Camden/Rockport, Maine - Camden gardener and Merryspring volunteer Wendy Andresen will present the third installment of her monthly lecture series entitled “Tending the Perennial Garden” at Merryspring Nature Center on Tuesday, August 7 at 12:00 noon.

The third session in her continuing series, Wendy will provide helpful tips and demonstrate practices to encourage your perennial garden to flourish this summer. At the start of a new month, every class is different. As the seasons progress, the series adapts to accommodate the changes in the perennial garden. Andresen’s presentation will reference Tracy DiSabato-Aust’s essential garden manual The Well Tended Perennial Garden. Copies of that book and other garden tools and accessories will be available for purchase.

Participants for this talk should meet outside at Merryspring’s gazebo at noon. Guests are reminded to wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing to this event.

This presentation is part of the Summer Talk Series, cosponsored by Camden National Bank and Jaret & Cohn Real Estate.

Admission to the Tuesday Talks is free to Merryspring members and children, with a nominal $5 fee for non-members.

Merryspring is a member-supported, non-profit nature education center and park located at the end of Conway Road just off Rt. 1 by the Hannaford shopping plaza in Camden. For more information, call Merryspring at 236-2239
