Our teacher

On a cool and sunny day, six members assembled at the Ordway Shelter at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum.
Taking root cuttings of herbs which we had just trimmed, and  using vermiculite, two pots, water, and some rooting compound, we made our own Forsythe Pots.

In three to four weeks our plants will have roots and can be carefully repotted. Thank you, Shirley, for a fun and informative event.
