Horticulture Flower Show
November 19, 2021 @ 8:00 am - 3:00 pm
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! We want this to be fun! Everyone has at least one plant that they take particular pride in! Go for it!
It’s easy! For design you can:
1) Make a Thanksgiving table arrangement meant to be viewed from two sides, and/or
2) Make a Christmas flower arrangement meant to be viewed from one side only.
The only limitation is that the arrangements must be composed of plant material, nothing artificial. If it comes from a plant, you can use it!
For horticulture, you can 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 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 plants to the Pavilion at Dallas White Park between 8:00 and 9:00 Friday morning. There will be volunteers to help you identify your plant by its botanical name. Placings and ribbons will be available when you arrive for our 1:00 general membership meeting.
Regular meeting begins at 1:00pm.
