With the April 22-23 Spring Affair celebrating its 30th year as the biggest plant sale in the state, this brown-bag is aimed at gardeners looking to the growing season ahead and thinking about new plants to add to their gardens. Bob Henrickson, Horticulture Program Coordinator for the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum, will give a sneak peek at the “tried and true, must-have perennials. Big and small, bold and bright—Spring Affair is home to many magnificent outstanding, dependable perennial plants that deserve bragging rights.”

Anyone wishing to listen in can take part online at: connect.unl.edu/brownbag. The presentations are also available afterwards at arboretum.unl.edu/brown-bags.

This is part of a brown-bag series on “all things green” sponsored by the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum, UNL Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, UNL Garden Friends and Friends of Maxwell Arboretum.
