August/September 2018 Meetings

In August, we had our AGM and the president of the Waverley Garden Club came to chair the AGM elections. After serving the committee for many years, Ria left the committee this year. As it was just after our busy Floral Art show weekend in August, we had a relaxing night listening to Margaret Myers and Jan Impey talk about their latest trip to Japan with the garden club. They showed us some lovely garden pictures of their trip.
In September, we had a workshop on making wreaths. Elizabeth and Rosie showed us different ways of making wreaths – some with oasis, cane, willow, sticks and wires. Then we all had fun making wreaths with flowers, foliage, gum nuts, pine cones and moss. ‘A design using bundling’ was the title for the bench and ‘stem, spike or truss’ was the horticultural item.
