Spring is the time to appreciate those lovely blooms that come from underground bulbs! Join Tim Becker, TPF's Director of Horticulture, in this last class of the season focusing on native California bulbs! This class will be held indoors, with a major portion taught from our beautiful bulb house as well.
Participants will learn:
- Seed propagation and division propagation of bulbs;
- Culture and care in both containers and ground;
- Botany and floristic diversity of native geophytes
Feel free to bring your cameras to capture the stunning expression of blooms that have taken years to show! Some bulbs you may see have taken 8 years to achieve flowering stages.
Please note that this workshop is partially held outdoors; students should come prepared for aproximately 1 hour of standing and walking. Please wear closed-toe shoes, sun protection and bring water.
