Wakefield Estate Hosts Pruning Workshop
Sunday, 30 March 2008 16:58
Staff from the Wakefield Charitable Trust and the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain teamed up to host the year's first pruning workshop at the Wakefield Estate on Saturday March 29th.
After nearly a 45 minute overview of the theory and practive of pruning, nearly two dozen avid gardeners and budding arborists (no pun intended!) braved cold and windy conditions and tried their hands at pruning azaleas, rhododendrons, lilacs, dogwoods and fruit trees. This is the first of several hands-on pruning workshops that the Wakefield Estate will host this year. For more information on upcoming workshops, please view our events calendar.
