IrrIgATION BASICS FOr THE
HOMEOWNEr
Speaker: Carol Parsonage
Having plants that thrive in our
drought-ridden area is a challenge for all
Sun City residents! At our May program
the focus is on water – practical steps to
use it wisely so our landscapes don’t get
too much or too little. Our speaker is a
Master Gardener, Irrigation Specialist
and Sun City Garden Club member.
Also, Master Gardeners will be avail-
able to answer gardening questions dur-
ing the social time before the program
begins. The meeting agenda will also
include “Plant of the Month” and “May
Gardening Tips” presentations.
We will have a sharing table at the May
meeting. If you have leftover plants,
garden tools or items you are willing
to give away, bring them along to find
a new home.
