Discover the best tips for successful winter seed sowing in containers with the Penn State Master Gardeners of Cumberland County at the Winter Seed Sowing program on Saturday, October 5, 11am-12pm, outdoors at the Adams Ricci Butterfly Garden near the Midway Pavilion at Adams Ricci Park located at 100 E. Penn Drive, Enola, PA 17025.
An easy, economical way to increase your number of perennial plants is to start them in plastic containers and allow them to overwinter outside.
