Gardening expert’s free workshop on growing seedlings

Back due to popular demand, the free Daltons School of Gardening workshop series are up and running. This month’s workshop is the second in the series and will be held at a new location at Bunnings Warehouse Manukau, 55 Lambie Drive Manukau - look-out for the new Daltons Truck. Hosted by award winning landscape designer and TV personality Xanthe White, these hands-on practical workshops are perfect for gardeners at any level, and are packed full of helpful tips and techniques.

In this month’s workshop, Xanthe will be showing attendees techniques on pricking out and transplanting seedlings. “Pricking out” or “thinning out” is selecting and removing new seedlings from their original containers and transplanting them to a new one for growth, and is an important step to give seedlings the best start. The Daltons School of Gardening workshops are a wonderful opportunity to come together to learn the art of gardening, and share your experiences with other budding gardeners.
