We were very fortunate to have Professor Emeritus Robert Ll. Morris join us for our first meeting in the Liberty Center since March of 2020! Forty-nine members and eight guests gathered for the event!
We collected questions from our members in advance and Bob answered them in detail! Our meeting time was cut off at 11:15am unexpectedly before all of our members' questions were answered. Scroll down to review the entire powerpoint presentation from that morning, including Bob's answers to the questions he couldn't get to. (To view the slides full screen, tap on the first slide then tap the upward arrow in a box.)
And remember that Bob welcomes your questions, free of charge, at extremehort@aol.com. You can learn event more from him at xtremehorticulture@blogspot.com.
