August 5 @ 9:30 am – Proper Planting for Success

Privacy, shade, color, evergreen, and blooms. We cover trees for every situation, especially small gardens, including trees for country gardens and trees for difficult sites. Trees for blossom, bark, fruit and colorful autumn foliage. With so many choices picking the perfect tree can be overwhelming, but not after this class. Free tree planting guide to students after this class.

August 12 @ 9:30 am – Wildlife & Bug Prevention

Late summer is not only the peak of bug season, there’s also intense pressure from furry visitors in our yards. Students start with best practices to keep javelina and pack rats away, then quickly move to solutions for grasshoppers and tomato worms. You can have a nice yard with these easy-to-use tips and a few key plant choices. Frustrated gardeners will have all the tools they need to keep the garden pest free!

August 19 @ 9:30 am – Best Evergreens for Mountain Landscapes

Evergreens can be the anchor of any landscape, providing color and privacy year-round. We’ll dispel the myth that the only evergreens are pine trees, when in fact they can be a multitude of different shapes, colors, and sizes—there are even evergreens that aren’t green!

August 26 @ 9:30 am – Gardening for Newcomers

Learn all the mountain secrets to local garden success. This is an information-packed class guaranteed to increase garden blooms and fruit this year. Learn about growing zones, frost dates, soils, and more; you’ll know exactly what to do in the gardens after this class.

The free Garden Classes will take place every Saturday in August at 9:30 am at Watters Garden Center, 1815 Iron Springs Rd, Prescott.
