| Details | Join the Seymour Library in welcoming Horticulturist Peter Winne in presenting a dual hands-on pruning workshop and talk on growing and caring for roses. Roses are one of the most beautiful flowers in the garden but caring for them in the demanding Northeast’s climate takes knowledge besides hope and devotion. Mr. Winne will be presenting first a hands on workshop to prune roses right on the Library’s grounds – weather permitting. Feel free to bring gloves and pruners if you would like to give it a try! For pruning workshop please meet at the Library’s circ desk at 5:15 before Peter goes outside to start the class. After the pruning workshop Peter will present at 6 pm in the lower level auditorium a talk on the growing and care of roses in the Northeast followed by Q and A. Peter Winne is a well known horticulturist who designs and cares for gardens in public parks and on unique and residential properties in Connecticut and New York. He founded Peter Winne Gardens in 2021 after years as the Head Gardener at Elizabeth Park, home of the nation’s oldest public rose garden. This is an in person event and no registration is needed to attend the talk and workshop. For more information about both please call the Library at 203 – 888-3903.
