Now is the time to be thinking about spring blooming bulbs! Fall planted bulbs, or spring-blooming bulbs, are some of the most common and reliable flowering bulbs suited for Illinois landscapes. In this one-hour program, Extension Horticulturist Candice Miller will teach about how to plant, divide, store, and identify various bulbs, tubers, and corms. Candice will also do a hands-on demonstration on how to divide these bulbs, giving you the opportunity to take some bulbs home to plant right away!

This program is open to the public and everyone is welcome. The fee for this program is $5. Pre-registration is preferred by September 16. You may register online or call the office location where you wish to attend.
