June 1st, 2026 "Mountain Laurel and Friends from the Heath and Heather Family" - Monday, ZOOM 7PM Eastern

Join Horticulture and Container Production Manager Adam Wheeler for this informative Zoom lecture that explores the unique diversity and ornamental qualities of the Connecticut state flower, Kalmia latifolia. In addition to mountain laurel, Adam will showcase a selection of other heath and heather family members worth considering for regional gardens. Broken Arrow's Founder Dr. Richard Jaynes dedicated his career to breeding mountain laurel and as a result we have amassed one of the largest collections in the world. This lecture promises to be an excellent chance to see the amazing diversity now available. Approximately one day before the talk, we will send a Zoom link to the email address provided when you register.
