Upcoming Programme for May
Our next meeting will be May 16th Thursday at 7:00 PM in the Kiosk at the botanical gardens.
We will be featuring fantastic Chrysanthemums with a talk on varieties, types and the different divisions of the chrysanthemum world. There will be some plants for sale and a beautiful green spray that is hard to come by and of particular interest to floral arrangers.
The May meeting will also be our annual general meeting to set the course and direction for the future year ahead.
Should be a good meeting so don’t miss out and all family, friends and new members are most welcome.
