The Monroeville Garden Club met on February 8, 2018 at 1:00 p.m. at the home of Sharon Brewton in Monroeville. Gracious hostesses were Sharon Brewton and Jean Singleton.
Guest speaker was Mrs. Karen Rhea White, chair of the Baldwin County Master Gardeners. Mrs. White gave a wonderful presentation on airplants, which are unique because they do not require soil to grow, only air and water. In fact, they can thrive with indirect sunlight and simple water misting from a spray-bottle. There are over 730 species of airplants, and they make great houseplants because of their low-maintenance qualities. You can purchase airplants from
www.airplantshop.com and
www.logees.com.
After the presentation, members enjoyed Valentine-themed treats including heart-shaped finger sandwiches, mixed nuts, petit-fours, brownies, strawberries, cookies and candies. There was also fresh lemonade, hot tea and coffee. The table was decorated with a beautiful centerpiece of fresh tulips.
