SPECTACULAR HOLIDAY ARRANGEMENTS AT THE POUND RIDGE GARDEN CLUB FLOWER SHOW

Looking for ideas for that special centerpiece or buffet table arrangement? Planning ahead for a holiday party? Then you’ll want to come to the Pound Ridge Garden Club’s flower show August 10 and 11 at Conant Hall in Pound Ridge.

Titled, “If Only Every Day Were A Holiday…,” the show will feature artistically arranged flowers celebrating holidays throughout the year, as well as horticultural specimens. The public is welcome and there is no charge for admission.

Floral designs will be variously displayed on trays and tables that are themed for Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving, Columbus Day, Halloween and the Chinese Lunar New Year. The horticultural division will feature herbs, flowering plants and other categories of greenery. There will also be educational exhibits on use of roses for the holidays as well as an exhibit of designs by youngsters just beginning to learn the elements of floral design.

Pound Ridge Garden Club members are renowned for the artistry of their designs. Past shows have garnered awards at the regional and national level. Susan Lee, a past president of the club, is the chair of this year’s show.
