In celebration of National Public Gardens Week, join for a talk with Walker Young, Assistant Curator, about “Get the Dirt on Soil.” The right soil is so important to the health of your plants. Learn about the special soil needs of the cacti, succulents and other dry-garden plants that make up the Ruth Bancroft Garden and your home garden too.

This short, introductory talk is free but RSVP required.
