For those interested in the wide range of perennials, their use and care.

We are a large and active organization, with garden tours in the summer and monthly meetings in the 'off season'. April 2010 will mark the 13th anniversary of a group of members with diverse interests and vast experience.

We meet 7PM on the 1st Thursday of the month; usually in the Auditorium at the rear of Monroe County Cornell Cooperative Extension office, 249 Highland Avenue, Rochester. Summer meetings are held in interesting regional gardens.
