NARGS Tri-State Meeting
The annual Tri-State meeting of metropolitan New York NARGS chapters (Long Island, Hudson Valley, and Manhattan) will be held in the Conference Center at Planting Fields Arboretum, Oyster Bay, NY, on Sunday, October 22, 2017, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The speaker will be Yasemin Konuralp, a botanist from Turkey, who will give two talks: The Bulbs of Turkey and The Flowers of Turkey.
The first talk will start at 11:00 a.m. and the second will be given after a one-hour lunch break at 1:15 p.m. In addition to the two talks, there will be a plant sale featuring choice plants offered by several vendors and a book sale featuring titles from the collections of the late Larry Thomas and Tom Stuart.
Attendees will receive free admission and parking when they mention the rock garden society meeting to the attendant at the entrance gate. Attendees are encouraged to bring a lunch. There is a snack bar on the grounds, but service can be slow. Please mark the date on your calendars for a fun and informative day with fellow rock gardeners.
All NARGS members and interested guests are invited to attend. Please contact Brendan Kenney [email protected] for more information.
