Horticulture Class – Pruning Trees and Shrubs Join our Director of Horticulture, James Faupel, for an indoor presentation to introduce you to pruning basics and tool care before heading out onto the Arboretum grounds to explore St. Louis’s most diverse tree collection. It may be cold, but winter is the absolute best time of year to prune most of your dormant trees and shrubs. Don’t forget to bring your favorite set of hand pruners, as well as your plant photography and note taking gear, and to dress for the weather! This class will be from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Space is limited, and reservations are required. The cost per person to attend is FREE, with a suggested donation of $15. Please wear appropriate walking attire and dress for cold winter weather.  Room is limited and reservations are required.  Please arrive at the main entrance between 15 to 20 minutes before class time for a prompt departure.  Sign Up!   MAKE A GIFT Donations to the Friends of Bellefontaine Cemetery are always gratefully accepted.
