Dahlia Society May meeting

Dahlia Society Meeting 2pm to 4pm on May 19h at the Agri-Nature Center:

AAVC Field Trip

Members of the Albuquerque African Violet Club (AAVC) took a field trip to the White Rock, NM, home of Dena Brent, AAVC member.

We had a lovely lunch at the “Pig and Fig” Cafe, White Rock. Following lunch, Dena provided a very informative tour of her custom African violet growing environment in her home.  We received some great tips on lighting, watering, repotting, pest avoidance, and more.  We saw her extensive collection of African violet standards, minis and semi-minis.  In addition, we were provided a tour of Dena’s beautiful landscaping and garden.

The trip was a most informative outing and a wonderful change of pace!

Petal Pusher's Spring Field Trip

Petal Pushers had a fun filled field trip on June 6th.

We toured the Albuquerque Botanical Gardens and learned about many plants that we never knew about. Our docent was actually a member of our Daylily Society. It is a small world.

For our July meeting, we will be starting our project to sell dryer vent hose pumpkins. We will meet at the garden center on July 25th, at 9:30 am.
