Event Details

Spring cleaning in the garden is crucial to get shrubs and herbaceous borders looking their best, and to prepare vegetable and herb beds for a bountiful year.  Daryl Beyers will review a checklist of earth-friendly gardening tasks to be performed during spring maintenance based on the key elements of soil, trees and  shrubs, herbaceous perennials, vegetables and herbs, bulbs, annuals and  containers, tender perennials, and lawns. Focusing on three pivotal moments in the spring garden: Before Final Frost, At Final Frost, and After Final Frost, these tips and strategies will give your garden a head start on a great growing season. Daryl will focus on a section of his new book The New Gardener’s Handbook which will be available for sale.

Daryl Beyers is gardening certificate program coordinator at the New York Botanical Garden where he also teaches the popular Fundamentals of Gardening course. He has more than twenty-five years of professional landscaping experience, specializing in residential garden design and development. His articles on gardening and garden design have appeared in Fine Gardening, Martha Stuart Living, Horticulture and HGTV Magazine. He maintains an active speaking schedule throughout the year, presenting at a wide variety of garden shows and clubs across the country, both independently and on behalf of NYBG.
