Friday Forum’s First Flower Festival

 Members were tasked with creating an installation to include two natural materials depicting a book or song title and some stretched it to a film!

We had 23 entries and members had fun guessing the answers. Christine scored the highest.

How many did you get?

Display Table

Ann brought tropaeolum tricolor

Ann also brought a couple of books by Enid Blyton which she has had since a child: Let’s Garden and Book of the Year which gives notes on nature for every day of the year including stories, poems and songs. An example of a Motto from Week #44:

 It is better to be a little patient when crossing the road, than to be a little patient in the hospital.

Although there have been reprints, these copies are worth quite a bit, but Ann wouldn’t part with them.

Carol brought Chocolate Vine (Akebia Quinata)

Judith brought a yellow cotoneaster

Norma brought some Forget-me-nots

Norma has caught loads of small slugs using the beer in a container method which are then left out for the birds.

Norma also brought a jug of blossom: Camellia,  Exochorda x macrantha 'The Bride' , Snowball, Choisya Aztec Pearl, Canary Bird and a perfumed Azalea

Next Meeting: There will be no meeting on 17^th May but on 24^th May we have a presentation on  Growing Plants in Containers by  David Allison
