Exciting events were underway at the September Bluebell meeting! Featured were My Naked Florist, Gary Rushing, and Mark Soukup, designer of the Montwell Commons plantings.
Completely attired, the “Naked Florist” presented demonstrations on table arrangement using both uncultivated and cultivated growths. A hail to pokeweed in this event! Also noted were suggestions and demonstration for the seasonal designs Bluebell members provide for local merchant planters throughout the year. Anne Gardener is cited for bringing this florist to our attention.
Mark Soukup provided members with a listing of plantings used in the garden make-up for Montwell Commons. The focus was on using native plants as much as was feasible to enhance the area. Some included cliff goldenrods, St. John’s Wort, milkweed, switchgrass and so much more. Much thought and planning went into the placements for the varied areas.
New member Rose Greathouse from Sinks Grove was introduced to the membership.
