10:00 AM to 4:00 PM – Saturday June 2 at Carol’s Collectibles Nursery in Swanville, Maine.
Syringa Plus is now co-located with Carol’s Collectibles Nursery. Swanville is next door to Belfast a busy tourist stop in the summertime, but not so busy in the spring and yet it has all the amenities required to serve folks from “away”.
We hope for an informal gathering, to spend some time chatting about lilacs. We will be sharing info for beginners and for the advanced lilac enthusiast. Come to share and add to your lilac experiences. We are all students, learning to better grow our beloved lilacs.
