Sundays on the Porch
Friday, May 29, 2009
The “Sundays on the Porch” series at the William Allen White House State Historic Site, 927 Exchange St., begins with a program from 2 to 3 p.m. Sunday, “The Gardens of Red Rocks,” given by Lyon County Extension Master Gardeners and Amy Jordan, Lyon County Horticultural Extension agent. The Master Gardeners tend the beds of colorful perennials at the house. Discussions will center on restoring the gardens to the 1920s, based on a 1927 Better Homes and Gardens article and vintage photographs. Plant selection and general information about gardening also will be given. Donations in support of the site will be appreciated. In case of inclement weather, the program will be in the Visitor’s Center on site.
