Our ex-situ plant conservation goal is to actively promote and preserve botanic diversity by sharing plants with gardeners around the world through Plant Delights Nursery. \n\n\n\nJoin Tony Avent on this zoom journey of JLBG/PDN’s history over the past 38 years!

This will be an entry level course that covers terminology and techniques used for producing plants via sexual reproduction. This class will be a more in depth and hands on experience into sexual plant propagation than our comprehensive plant propagation course held in spring. Many of our most popular topics like fern production\, and hand pollination\, will be included. All of the source plants come from our garden collections and production greenhouses so you are guaranteed to take home hundreds of dollars of freshly propagated perennials including rare plants\, exotic plants and native plants. Great bargain!
