We have an exciting meeting coming up on Thursday! First of all, we’ll have a talk given by Robert Wilmott and Hayne Wai about their work documenting the Pruning at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Chinese Garden. With photographs and notes, they have been recording the pruning of the garden, undertaken by the Park Board gardeners and supervised by retired gardener and Penjing (bonsai) master, Pin Lee. They are still working on this project and, in conjunction with their work to date, Hayne has produced a PowerPoint presentation. Their talk will be about 40 minutes.
After that, and its Q&A period, we are asking YOU to participate!
We are going to compile a set of Summer Gardening Tips, and we’d like you to think of one clever Tip. Write it out on a piece of paper that you can leave with us, but then we’ll open up the floor and ask you to share your Tip with the group. Weed control? Helping climbers? Attracting hummingbirds? Protecting carrots from carrot fly? Anything special that works for you. If everyone contributes just one Tip, we’ll have quite a collection. We’ll read them all and post them on our website.
And, as usual, clip a little sprig of something in your garden that looks just spectacular this week and bring it for our display!
And we’ll have a door prize !
See you all at the meeting! Bring your friends! And if you haven’t renewed your membership for 2015, please do! $20/year or $4 to drop in to a single meeting.
Cheers,
Penny
And don’t forget:
