Gardening Study School

For all gardeners with an interest in horticulture who have had little professional training, these courses are designed to:

1. Stimulate interest in the growth of plant materials to their peak of perfection.
2. Give an understanding of how and why a plant grows.
3. Teach soil structure and methods for making soil more productive.
4. Illustrate methods for rapid propagation of plants.
