Perennial Garden Featured in The Forum

Wednesday, 20 April 2011 07:49 Written by Administrator

Information provided by Charlotte West
Federated Garden Clubs Springfield Council

Now for some really great news. The Garden Forum is up on the FGCM website gardenclubsofmissouri.org and our perennial garden is featured in the Forum. The pictures came out beautifully. Take a look and spread the word. I can hardly wait to have the hard copy in hand. The link for The Garden Forum is here with the garden article, The Federated Garden Clubs Garden within the brand new Springfield-Greene County Botanical Center featured on pages 20 - 21: http://gardenclubsofmissouri.org/The%20Garden%20Forum%20Spring%202011.pdf

57th Annual Standard Flower Show

Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:02 Written by Administrator

The 57th Annual Standard Flower Show was held in September of 2010 at the Library Center in Springfield, MO. This past year's show was brought to you by these four garden clubs, all part of the Springfield Council of Federated Garden Clubs:

Produced by Hiltrud "Sam" Webber

  1. Brentwood Garden Club
  2. Cherry Court Garden Club
  3. Ever Green Garden Club
  4. Hillbilly Gardeners Garden Club

The four individual clubs work together on community projects as the Springfield Council of Federated Garden Clubs and come together annually to put on one large flower show for the entire area to enjoy.

There were educational tables, almost fifty designs and a large number of horticulture specimens. Several of the horticulture specimens you might have recognized as things that your grandmother used to grow. Plus there were several brand new things that have just been introduced to the market in the past year or so.

The show was judged by accredited judges and they evaluated the flower show high enough to give it a rating (higher than 95%) so the group can apply for a top state award.
