“Dr. Wallace, former professor and chair of the Biology Department at William Paterson University, has also authored numerous papers in ornamental horticulture and holds many certificates in that field,” the club told Northern Valley Press.

They invite you to “come and enjoy this presentation. Perhaps bring a friend so you can plan some future horticultural visits of your own.”

Wallace’s credentials include serving as past president of Glen Rock Garden Club and the Passaic County Master Gardeners. She has toured gardens, arboreta and nature centers throughout the region and continues to write on topics such as crickets, rhododendrons, hydrangeas, azaleas, and geraniums.
