Already, Three Awards!


At the first program meeting of the season, Members flooded Union Congregational Church with well over 160 horticulture entries in 26 classes divided between six different sections. Three of our annual awards are pictured here with their new ribbons, and below.

  • Deborah Hirsch was awarded the Barbara Meyer Rose Award for her delicate and fragrant "Desdemona" roses. The judges couldn't help but give these beauties "Best in Show."

  • Celia Radek won not one but two awards: the Amy Hatrack Herb Award for her collection of five herbs, and the Estelle Liebrecht Horticulture Award for her perfect, perky, pink zinnia, grown from seed distributed this spring.

See also the winners of firsts in all the classes below and, below those, a selection of photos showing the wide variety of beautiful plants and flowers exhibited with such pride and enthusiasm by our Members.
