It's that time again!  November 8 is this year's last UCCE Master Gardener Plant Clinic workshop at Gamble Garden.  Master Gardeners will be on hand to answer home gardening questions.  This is the right time of year to plan and prepare for 2009's veggie and ornamental plantings.   November is the best time to plant many perennials and shrubs.  Get answers to all those troubling questions about pruning roses, fruit trees and shrub, as well as what and how to plant in your garden right now.  The clinic is a great place to get information about your most mysterious pests, diseases and totally confounding plant troubles.  Bring soil samples and/or photos of pests and plant parts.  Finally, get the help you need to set your garden right.  Please invite friends and neighbors to this free workshop.  

No reservations needed.

Start: 9:30 am
End: 11:30 am

Plant descriptions may say "partial sun," "partial shade," or full shade."  What do they really mean?  Learn how to create a shady area in your garden or use your existing shade for best effect.  Master Gardener Niki Muller will discuss design issues in creating a shade garden in your location.  Types and patterns of shade and the problems that may arise will be addressed.  Plant selection, care and feeding will also be discussed.  Come with your questions!

Registration is required and class size is limited to 25.  Register online or phone Gamble Garden at 650-329-1365 ext. 201, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to noon.
