October 2015 Monthly Meeting
International Clematis authority and Georgia Master Gardener Lyndy Broder was our final guest speaker for 2015 at the October 19th GCMGA monthly meeting.

Her main focus was new and creative ways to incorporate clematis into the garden which gave great ideas for our own gardens. Lyndy also spoke to care and pruning of clematis as well as our native Clematis.
