Upcoming programs at Berkshire Botanical Garden
STOCKBRIDGE – Berkshire Botanical Garden presents the following upcoming programs. Saturday, Sept. 14, 2 to 3:30 p.m., “Overwintering Your Garden.” Many summer-blooming plants can be stored indoors as rootstock: corms, tubers, rhizomes, and bulbs. Some annuals are easy to propagate from stem cuttings, but they require optimal indoor lighting. And all need a plan for how to use your indoor space. Chris Ferrero will lead this class. Cost is $25 members, $40 nonmembers. To register or for more information, visit www.berkshirebotanical.org. Berkshire Botanical Garden is located at 5 West Stockbridge Road.
