Horticultural Lecture Series: The Curious Plantsman—Challenging Convention: Plant Trials by Design

Matt Mattus is a creative who cannot stop growing. With an inherent curiosity that challenges conventional wisdom and seeks out the obscure, Matt experiments with classic and current horticultural methods to find which has merit and which misleads. His research has also identified “secret recipes” that could improve the results of what you’re growing in your own garden. Matt will discuss seed-sown annuals, delphiniums from cuttings, demystifying South African bulbs and cyclamen, and more. His presentations are known for a combination of inspirational beauty, useful content and humor, so you might want to come with a notebook! A reception with light refreshments will follow this talk at Wave Hill, the final lecture in the 2023 series.

Registration required, online or by calling 718.549.3200 x251. Registration for this event is closed.

Special shuttle van service will be available on this day to accommodate lecture attendees.
