No garden is complete without this queen of American shrubs. From 18-inch, container-sized, reblooming beauties to 8-foot explosions of multicolored zing, there is a hydrangea for every garden.

Through slides and discussion, you’ll learn all about hydrangeas, including their proper care, and the hardy cultivars that perform well despite over-enthusiastic pruning, wildlife, and finicky weather. You’ll leave this talk never again having to ask the question, “Why doesn’t my hydrangea bloom?”

Sponsored by the Kensington Garden Club.
