Ms. Jentz spoke to our club about forcing bulbs and deer proofing.She also provided practical information on solutions to many gardening issues. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of many gardening topics, She is very personable and approachable. I thought her presentation was perfect, I know my club would love to have her speak again.

Ms. Jentz presented an excellent program to the Great Falls Garden Club on the challenge of cultivating gardens in dry shade. She gave us good information on soil amendments and plant choices. Many members told me afterwards what a good program it was!
