Learn About Gardening. All Year Long.

Find out about the newest, rarest or even weirdest plants in the McLean Library of the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. Whether you are finishing your school report or just looking for a little guidance, the Library has more than 15,000 volumes and is one of the largest horticultural collections in the region. And come see our instructional videos on YouTube.

To improve your gardening skills, read our award-winning Green Scene magazine. Written by local and national garden professionals, Green Scene is filled with colorful "how-to" articles and is published 6 times a year. You can also have your gardening questions personally answered by email.

And if landscaping is on your mind, put some Gold Medal Plants on your shopping list. A complete list of award winning plants with sources, photos and descriptions of these exceptional trees, shrubs and vines is available. There’s lots more too.

Join us year-round for educational lectures and workshops to sharpen your gardening skills, from flower arranging to garden design and much more. Browse our calendar by date or type of event. And city gardeners can find special lectures and workshops here.
