The fall rains are starting and this is the time when native seeds sprout and native plants start growing underground. It’s also the perfect time to plant your seeds, divide the Douglas irises and take hardened cuttings of monkeyflowers. Come hear about different methods of propagating native plants just in time to prepare for spring bloom and planting season.
After the program, we’ll swap plant material. Bring any seeds or cuttings that you’d like to share with others and containers to carry what you want to bring home.
Our City Forest’s Community Nursery & Training Center in San Jose is the home to hundreds of species of native and non-native trees, shrubs and grasses. All trees and plants are available on a tax-deductible donation basis and visitors can attend expert-led workshops on planting, plant care and propagation.
