What's Wrong with My Plant? In-Person
No garden is free from plant problems like pests, diseases, and cultural (abiotic) disorders. This workshop teaches you how to keep your plants healthy and enhance their resilience to harmful organisms through suitable plant choices and effective gardening practices.
Join us to see how Master Gardeners diagnose issues related to pests, diseases, and cultural disorders in plants.
This event will be held in the Multi-Purpose Room.
Presented by: Silloo Kapadia, an Allegheny County Penn State Master Gardener since 2012 and Past-Chair of Garden Hotline. In 2018, she earned the Penn State Extension Master Gardener Advanced Certification in Woody Plant Identification.
Silloo obtained her first Master Gardener Certification at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens (where she remains a docent) and the Certificate of Sustainable Horticulture in 2013. She is a member and Past-Chair of the Western PA Unit of the Herb Society of America with an interest in Culinary Herbs. Her other Speaker’s Bureau talks include “Culinary Herbs in the Home Garden – For Use and Delight”, “Herbs and Spices in Indian Cuisine”, and “What’s Wrong with My Plant”.
Silloo is a retired physician and Professor of Pathology (UPMC and later at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center). She acquired her medical degree at Chennai (Madras), India, and did her Pathology residency at UPMC.
