2010 will be a busy year for MPS. Come to our business meeting and hear what we’ve been planning. In June we’ll be traveling to Wisconsin to the American Peony Society Show. A week later, we’re planning our own garden tour and picnic. It’s going to be a busy peony season.

With winter still having a hold on Minnesota, we’re going to share our optimistic outlook for Spring with a colorful seminar featuring Keith Swenson of Swenson’s Gardens. Keith believes that peonies form a generational bond to its grower and those that admire its outer beauty. However, for those of us who are growers, peonies true beauty is not what is seen, but what is happening underneath those massive blooms and upright stems. Taking care of our ‘roots’ first is truly the key to many years of gardening bliss. Join Keith as he presents a step-by-step process of planting bare-root peonies. His color filled presentation will also detail tips and techniques for growing award winning peonies without the use of chemicals. Visit his online garden at www.swensongardens.com.
