May 16, 7pm, Zoom
(Members, see your email for link info).
This season marks Janell's third attempt at a virus-free dahlia field in west-central Ohio. Learn what advantages growing clean stock have yielded, and why she has kept going with the costly and fraught pursuit. She will share methods to reduce virus transmission, her sources of clean stock, strategies for lowering virus testing costs, and her process and the results of her attempts.
Janell is a member of the Cincinnati Dahlia Society and DSO, an ADS candidate judge, and the owner of the Pollinator Patch.
They are waiting for you!
