WAVE HILL – Plantwise Walk: Broaden Your Evergreen Palette
February 23, 2024
2–3PM

There is more than holly when it comes to broad-leaved evergreens. We will look at this growing collection of evergreens with their waxy-like leaves that glisten and reflect the winter sun.

About the Plantwise Walk series:
A series led by Jess Brey, Wave Hill’s Senior Horticultural Interpreter, each “walk and talk” will focus on a specific group of plants, encouraging a deeper relationship with some of the special plants that grow at Wave Hill. Topics explored may be nomenclature, ethnobotany, history and plant culture, such as pruning, germination and propagation. As the series title indicates, this is a program for the curious; adult participants with some plant knowledge will get the most out of these programs. Severe weather cancels.

Free with admission to the grounds.

Registration encouraged, online or by calling 718.549.3200 x251
