It’s grafting season! Bring your plant materials (scions, seeds, rhizomes, etc.) to share at our annual Scion Exchange.

event, please let them know there is a
$10 donation for each non-chapter member guest.
Another new thing: there will NOT be a potluck at the event.

Event:   Hands-on Grafting Workshop & Lecture
Place:    Sepulveda Garden Center 16633 Magnolia Blvd, Encino, 91436

Come to our February meeting for the first annual hands-on workshop and lecture about how to graft successfully. Our
member, Bill Brandt, will provide an informative talk about various ways to graft scions.

We'll then break into groups so our additional guest instructors can guide you through each step to graft onto your rootstock.
If you own grafting tools, you are encouraged to bring them to the workshop.
A limited number of rootstocks will be available for purchase at $5 for members and $10 for non-members to cover the cost of
materials..
