October 14, 2010, Thursday, 7 PM: Monthly Meeting and Plant Swap - Meeting Presentation: Daylillies presented by Mary Pabst. 

Plant Swap Info...

What to expect: 

Plants, seeds, and cuttings that our fellow gardeners wish to share. No money will be exchanged. You do not need to bring a plant to take a plant(s). 

What to bring: Plants (house or outdoors), seeds, cuttings, etc. Dig it, collect it, re-gift it.  If you are revising your garden consider bringing your unwanted plants. Have a plant that self-seeds, consider potting the seedlings and bringing them in. 
Rules:  Share, enjoy and have fun.
Guidelines:
1. Please have plants and seeds marked, preferably in advance. The club will have some seed envelopes and plant markers on hand for the event, and can provide them in
advance as well, contact Susan or John B. If you need to mark on the day of the event, an early arrival would be appreciated. Pictures may help for people to visualize, if you can.
2. If this aggressive plant, excessively self-seeding or spreading by rhizome, mark it as such or make sure the recipient is aware. We would not want to tarnish the club image
of excellence by providing a new gardener with a mint plant without proper warning and instruction.  

The meeting will be held at the Allentown Methodist Church on Church St. in Allentown (next to LaPiazza). click here for directions   click here for a map
