Our speaker at the April meeting was quite enjoyable. Marcia presented us with a mini talk on butterfly gardening. We always learn new little tidbits of information about butterflies every time we hear someone talk about them. They are our #2 pollinator! Then Marcia showed us all the new organic garden products that are now available at the big box garden centers. That was news we could use. One specific product she was especially thrilled about is Jobe's Knock-Out Rose Food. It contains Mycorrhiza fungi which is so beneficial for healthy roots. Here is a link about this important fungi:
