SUMMARY:Memphis Horticulture Meeting - APR 7 - "Native Azaleas" with Charles Andrews
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Dixon Gallery and Gardens on Tuesday\, April 7 when Charles (Charlie) Andrews will be our speaker. Charlie has been studying North American azaleas in the field and the literature for over 50 years. He writes and speaks on azalea topics and is currently writing a book on the history and characteristics of this complex but underused group of plants. Charlie is a retired Georgia Tech engineer\, whose life-long hobby of trout fishing introduced him many years ago to native azaleas (often found along North Georgia’s trout streams). This is a subject about which he wants to learn everything possible. With notebook\, jeweler’s loupe\, and camera in hand\, Charlie roams the woods in search of native azaleas in their natural habitat. He is fortunate to have had properties with many thousands of them\, including amazing swarms of hybrids. His garden is filled with Ericaceae and other\, mostly native\, plants. Charlie is the immediate past president of the Azalea Society of America and serves on the Editorial Advisory Board of The Azalean\, the journal of the Azalea Society. He is an active member and past president of the Azalea Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society. \n\n\n\nCharlie’s presentation will be held in the Hughes Pavilion at the Dixon Gallery and Gardens at 6:00 p.m. Parking is available in the west lot and in the lot adjacent to the Hughes.

SUMMARY:Memphis Horticulture Meeting - July 7 - "Culture\, Pests and Diseases of Boxwood" with Lynn Batdorf
DESCRIPTION:One of the world’s leading authorities on boxwood will be our speaker on July 7. Lynn Batdorf\, retired Curator for the National Boxwood Collection at the U.S. National Arboretum and author of numerous authoritative texts on boxwood\, will discuss the “Culture\, Pests and Diseases of Boxwood”. Grown for centuries\, boxwood is a familiar shrub in many regions of the United States and Europe. Yet boxwood is not always well understood. Gardeners know of its reputation\, but would find it difficult to identify any of the hundreds of cultivars or describe good growing practices. Professionals search for accurate and detailed information to make appropriate horticultural decisions. This fun and informative presentation has all history\, lore\, landscape use\, cultural information\, pest and disease information for everyone to successfully enjoy and grow boxwood. \n\n\n\nLynn will also have his latest book available for purchase.  Boxwood: An Illustrated Encyclopedia (Second Edition) is the definitive reference for the Buxus genus. Published by the American Boxwood Society\, this comprehensive 668-page\, hardcover volume identifies and details characteristics for 1\,507 cultivated and wild boxwood taxa. For more information\, click here. For more about Lynn\, check out his website here.  \n\n\n\nThe meeting is free for Memphis Horticulture members\, but guests are asked to make a $5 donation at the door. Join us at 5:30 p.m. for refreshments and visiting with friends. We always appreciate contributions to the refreshment table.

SUMMARY:Dixon Munch & Learn - "The World of Boxwood" with Lynn Batdorf
DESCRIPTION:Lynn Batdorf\, Author and Retired Curator of the National Boxwood Collection\, U.S. National Arboretum \n\n\n\n“As the Official Registrar for Buxus Cultivars from his base at the U.S National Arboretum\, Washington\, DC\, Lynn Batdorf steadily worked through the increasing numbers of old and new Buxus cultivars which required botanical clarification and descriptive citation before official Registration. These were mostly sent in by boxwood enthusiasts and eagle-eyed nurserymen looking for a new ‘break’ or form. \n\n\n\nConfused identification of boxwood has been a serious problem with efficient marketing and choice of specimens. The results of Lynn’s work are some very informative publications on Buxus cultivation and correct identification. This includes the superb illustrated Boxwood Encyclopedia\, which references the species\, along with many related aspects of interest.” \n\n\n\nPoole\, Chris. “Lynn Batdorf Retires.” EBTS UK\, 21 Nov. 2015\, ebts.org/uk/2013/lynn-batdorf-retires/.  \n\n\n\nPlan to attend this FREE presentation.

SUMMARY:Memphis Horticulture Meeting - November 3 - "Conifers for the Mid-South" with Dale Skaggs
DESCRIPTION:The Mid-South is blessed with a plethora of broad-leaved evergreens\, but there are a fair number of lesser-known cone-bearing plants that we can grow.  Conifers are growing in popularity in the southeastern United States. They provide contrast both to each other and to our well-known evergreens.  They also make striking specimens to take your garden to the next level.  Explore the ones that work well locally. \n\n\n\nDale Skaggs is Director of Horticulture at Dixon Gallery and Gardens.  He is a native Memphian and holds a BS degree in Horticulture from Oregon State University and a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture and Master of Landscape Architecture from the University of Oregon. \n\n\n\nDale’s presentation will be held in the Winegardner Auditorium at the Dixon Gallery and Gardens at 6:00 p.m. It’s free for Memphis Horticulture members\, but guests are asked to make a $5 donation at the door. Join us at 5:30 p.m. for refreshments and visiting with friends. We always appreciate contributions to the refreshment table.
