Spring Has Sprung - 2023 Flower Show
2023-03-30 10:00 - 15:30 (America/New_York) | Shannon Staub Library, 4675 Career Lane, North Port, FL, 34289
Susie Cochran, our Flower Show Chair, and her crew have planned a simple horticulture and design show that will let all of you shine! Don’t be shy! Go for it!
It’s easy! There are several ways to participate.
The design theme is Spring Bouquet
If you’ve taken one of the recent workshops, you can enter your creation in one of the design categories:

Dried flower wreaths
Steppingstones
Flower Pounding Art (Tataki Zome)
Make a table arrangement meant to be viewed from one side

Please note that categories 1 and 4 must be composed of plant material – nothing artificial. If it comes from a plant, you can use it! Dried plant material can be spray painted.
To make things run smoothly on the day of the show, please pre-register your entry with Emily Panek by phone 941-786-1541 or email msemilypanek@comcast.net. Simply give her your name, phone number and/or email address and let her know what you’re entering.

For horticulture, bring any of the following:
1) Cuttings from one or more plants in your yard (shrub, tree, annual or perennial) that are healthy and attractive. This can be a flower, leaves, or branches (no longer than 30 inches). Just go out into your yard Thursday afternoon or evening and take cuttings of your favorite plants, place them in water and hold them overnight in a cool area of your house to acclimate them.
2) Container grown/potted plants that you have owned and cared for two months or more. This can be any healthy, attractive potted plant or hanging basket – foliage, flowering, or succulent plants. The only limitation is that it must be small enough to be lifted easily by the show volunteers. (Less than 20 pounds) Please do not bring big heavy floor plants.
Bring your entries and plants to the Shannon Staub Library Thursday morning, March 30th @ 9:00AM. There will be volunteers to help you identify your plant by its botanical name. Judging begins @ 11:30AM. Find out about how entries placed and see the ribbons awarded when you arrive for the Membership Meeting @1:00PM.
