• April 7, 6:30 pm, Dutchtown: F1 Hybrids—Not Your Grandmother's Flowers: Licensed landscape horticulturalist Cindy Moran will offer a presentation on new and improved genetics in flower gardening, which make the effort more rewarding and less labor intensive. She'll discuss how to make the important decisions in selecting seasonal color, and how interspecific crosses have revolutionized flowers and foliage in gardens. Register at (225) 673-8699.
• April 23=8, 6 pm, Gonzales Branch: Spring Plant Swap and Gardening Tips & Questions: This is your chance to get all of your gardening questions answered.

Bring your own labeled plants, cuttings, bulbs, or seeds to exchange with other local gardeners. To register, call (225) 647-3955.
