March 2012 Meeting




Our speaker for the March meeting was Fred Billings from Buds and Blossoms. He gave us some really good information on different plants that flourish in the springtime. For example, blanket petunias, with 6 hours of direct sunlight per day will bloom spring thru June. Have you thought of putting petunias under your lantana to keep color longer? The blooming of each will overlap, and you will have continuous color! Do you want to use pottery or other objects for your plants? Use the Fillers, Thrillers and Spillers method! Fillers are just small plants to fill space, Thrillers are upright and blooming, and spillers are plants that will “spill” over the sides of the vessel.


Congratulations to Marcia Mausolf on winning the door prize!!
