Meetings and Events

 

Chapter meetings are usually on the third Sunday of the month.

March 11 -- Northland Library at 2:00 PM: Amanda Haney will take us on a trip of “Alaskan Alpines and Other Wildflowers” -- “Alaska is a wildflower-lover’s paradise. The harsh climate and short growing season insures that a multitude of flowers bloom at once. Alpines are found at low elevations and are easily accessible due to the high latitude. During a trip this past July, I photographed a plethora of wildflowers in Denali National Park, Wrangell St Elias National Park, and Thompson pass near Valdez and will share them with our Chapter.”...Amanda.

April 15 -- National Aviary at 2:00 PM: To start the meeting we will see a slide program of the development of the garden, then Alan Peacock will demonstrate the plant location system he has developed so that we will be able to identify the plants in our garden after the labels have been lost, moved, or broken. We will then visit the garden and see the results from planting 200 to 300 spring blooming crocus, tulips, etc. There is still a lot to do before the Eastern Study Weekend in October, but I think you will all be pleased with the progress to date.

May 6 -- Show & Sale at Soergel’s
