Pruning Plumeria
About This Event
Saturday, April 27; 10am-1pm
Shape, trim, bloom! There’s more to trimming a plumeria tree than simply chopping away. Learn how to correctly prune and shape your trees in this hands-on workshop in the LA Arboretum’s plumeria grove. After in-depth instructions covering why, how, and where to trim branches, you will work with experienced grove volunteers to prune one or more of the grove’s trees.
*Class will be located in our plumeria grove which is about a 15-minute walk from the entrance. *Carts will be available to shuttle participants to class location starting at 9:30am.
About The Instructor
Since 2001, Diana has been growing plumeria in her drought tolerant, coastal garden and happily passes along her knowledge to the community. In 2014, she kick-started a volunteer effort to renovate, expand and improve the Arboretum’s grove of over 100 trees. She firmly believes in sharing her expertise and lessons learned via in-grove workshops and the annual Plumeria Day event.
