Flowers in Winter
Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean everything is gray.
Yelena Friedberg, really knows how to grow such great winter Amaryllises. Just look at the different varieties that she has along with the vibrant colors.

Cancelled – January Membership Meeting
After discussion with a few of our members I am going to cancel our January monthly meeting due to the weather and the road and parking conditions in and around the library. Parking and the sidewalks would be a problem for our members to get in and out of the library along with the single digit temperatures that they are calling for that night. I would not put any master gardener in harms way and I would not make this decision without speaking to some of our members as I previously mentioned.
Stay safe and warm during this cold spell and I look forward to seeing everyone at the greenhouse planting or making baskets.Thank you for your time.
Ed Vitela – Chairman 2024-2026
