The Perennials+ group, which focuses on topics related to perennials, meets the 3rd Thursday of each month from September through May. Monthly programs are based on the group’s interests and include a combination of presentations, workshops, and field trips. Topics for the year are listed in Signup Genius and additional details are published in the club’s newsletter. The group is open to all club members, however members interested in a specific meeting must sign up using Signup Genius since attendance may be limited. For more information, contact Kathie Breen.
