Ornamental Tropical and Subtropical Plants Including House Plants (Wed, Oct 15)
6:00 PM-9:00 PM, Tower Hill Botanic Garden: Stoddard Education and Visitors Center, 11 French Drive, Boylston, MA
Instructor: Paul M. Steen, M.D. Tropical and subtropical plants are primarily indoor ornamentals in our climate, and they can temporarily serve the same role outdoors during the warmer months. In this course the special needs and characteristics of tropical and subtropical plants will be surveyed. An overview of available types and species, both well-known and unusual, will enable students to select such plants intelligently and to care for them successfully. Since all house plants are tropical/subtropical in origin, we will devote several sessions to caring for house plants and indoor care of tropical plants in New England. Specimen plants in The Orangerie will be a principal resource for the course. (Thirteen classes) Cost: Certificate Program: $400 member tuition fee per one unit course, $445 non-member (Includes one-year THBG Membership). $200 tuition fee per half unit course, $245 non-member (Includes one-year THBG Membership).
