            Bulbs are Hidden Secrets for Season Long Color  -  May 13, 2021

        As winter snows recede, spring bulbs buzz to life providing color and floral resources that support emerging native pollinators.  Many gardeners limit themselves to colorful tulips and jazzy daffodils, but beauty from bulbs does not end there.  Join MSU Extension Senior Horticulture Educator, Rebecca Finneran on May 13th to learn how to amplify the season-long garden with dozens of species of bulbs. Come explore a rich pallet of color that may surprise you!     

        We’ll gather again via Zoom at 7:00 pm (6:45 pm early log on).  Be sure to have your membership up to date to receive the link information.
