Ready to wake your garden up from its winter nap? Trees and shrubs are the backbone of a beautiful landscape—the woody, perennial heart of your garden—and spring is the perfect time to give everything a fresh start.
Join Nursery Manager Jenna for an interactive talk and demonstration covering essential spring pruning techniques for trees, shrubs, and perennials, along with practical spring landscape cleanup tips to help your garden thrive in the growing season ahead. You’ll learn what to cut, what to leave, and how proper timing and technique can encourage healthy growth and better blooms.
The workshop begins with a look at different styles and sizes of pruners, how to choose the right tool for the job, and how to keep them clean, sharp, and ready for use. Jenna will then demonstrate pruning methods for both deciduous and evergreen plants, sharing tried-and-true tips to set your landscape up for success.
We’ll also talk through easy, effective ways to wake up your garden after winter—clearing debris, assessing plant health, and preparing your landscape for strong new growth.
Have photos of your own garden or plants you’re unsure about? Bring them along! Questions are encouraged—this is an open discussion workshop, and we’re here to help you feel confident and get started on the right foot this season.

-Pen and lecture notes will be provided.
-This class is subject to cancellation if minimum attendance is not met and refunds will be issued.
