                        Region 2 Summer Meeting and Seedling Eye Candy

        On Thursday, January 20th, at 7:00 pm Ginny Pearce will present a program via Zoom showing a variety of beautiful flower and garden photographs.  Ginny has been hybridizing northern hardy daylilies since 1996 with seven new introductions coming for 2022.  During her program, she will show her most impressive seedlings including the exciting new faces that bloomed for the first time last summer.  She will also share photos of her trip to Springfield, Illinois for the 2021 Region 2 Summer Meeting last July.  Hopefully, many members will join the meeting for a bit of mid-winter relief to see this colorful eye candy presentation.

         Be sure your membership is up to date to receive the Zoom link information.  Members are welcome to log in beginning at 6:30 pm to visit with each other before the program begins.
