Plant propagation practice

Last month, members of the Pakenham Probus Club’s garden group travelled to Sassafras to join in a plant propagation class with members of the Ferny Creek Horticultural Society.

The group received a guided tour of a small part of the society’s gardens, and then went indoors for their two-hour propagation class.

The session concluded with the society’s volunteers and the Probus members planting up cuttings, which had been taken up to six months previously.

The garden group is just one of several interest groups within the Probus Club.

Other activities include craft, tenpin bowling, walking, cinema, morning melodies, coffee and chat, dine out and cinema.

The club meets on the first Thursday of the month at the Cardinia Club in Racecourse Road.

For more information or to make enquiries about becoming a member, please contact the club secretary Pat Sherwell at secretary.pakprobusinc@gmail.com or 0459 977 400.
