Free Webinar Focuses on Avoiding Landscaping Mistakes

A nice yard takes work, and AARP Pennsylvania has joined with the Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Pittsburgh to offer a free webinar on how to avoid common landscaping mistakes.

The session will be led by horticulturalist George Weigel, who has written several gardening books. He will tackle both yard design and maintenance issues. The webinar runs from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 20. There will be time for participants to ask questions.

Participation is free, but registration is required by 8 a.m. the day of the event. To sign up, go to aarp.org/perfectyard.

The Phipps Conservatory is a Pittsburgh historic landmark that offers flower shows and classes.
