Free Florida-Friendly Gardening Hybrid Workshops in February
Optimizing Irrigation System
On Tuesday, February 7, 2023, join Citrus County Utilities Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program for a free gardening workshop on “Optimizing Your Irrigation,” from 2:00-3:30pm. Landscape irrigation should be supplemental, but often accounts for 50-70% of total residential water consumption. Proper irrigation practices, such as seasonal scheduling, catch-can calibration, and selection of drought-tolerant plants are essential to creating a sustainable and water-conserving landscape.
Palms in Central Florida
On Tuesday, February 21, 2023, join Citrus County Utilities Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program for a free gardening workshop on “Central Florida Palms,” from 2:00-3:30pm. Palms are a prominent and often costly element in Florida landscapes. Selecting cold-tolerant palms, providing the appropriate nutrients, recognizing deficiencies or symptoms of decline, and providing an appropriate control is essential when caring for your palm.
