SUMMARY:Meeting\, Saturday\, May 20
DESCRIPTION:IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR! Trees are growing and some need wiring and some need repotting. If you need help with an original styling or a ‘how to’ on repotting or a ‘how to’ on wiring\, bring that tree to the May meeting. We will have plenty of experienced people that will gladly help you with your tree(s). We will dedicate the entire program to working on trees to make sure you get a great start to the season.\nWe will also have an initial talk on potting soil\, bug protection\, watering\, and fertilizer. There are many different opinions\, but none are wrong if experienced people use them and are successful. Come with an open mind and learn.
