Program on Orchids

  The Monroeville Garden Club met on January 8, 2026, at the home of Charlotte Lambert.  Sherri Eubanks served as her co-hostess.

     Under new business, it was reported that Sky Pencil Hollies for the pots around the square have been ordered from Frisco City Co-Op.  Flax lily will be used as a filler along with seasonal flowers.  Bev bought metal Christmas stakes to add to the pots next year.  These were purchased from Hobby Lobby at 80% off.

     Wanda Martin, Baldwin County Master Gardener, presented a program on orchids.

     Following the program, members enjoyed the following refreshments:  Chicken Salad Sandwiches, Key Lime Desserts, and roasted pecans.

     Thirteen ladies attended the meeting.

Christmas Luncheon

 On December 11, 2025, the Monroeville Garden Club met at the Vanity Fair Golf and Tennis Club for a wonderful Christmas luncheon hosted by Faye Estes and Judi Burns.  The luncheon menu consisted of a delicious chicken casserole, cranberry concealed salad, sweet and sour green beans, rolls, and red velvet  cake.  Tea or water were the drinks of choice.  

     Each table was beautiful decorated with a Christmas motif with a bag of Christmas favors to be taken home by each member.  A beautiful Christmas tree adorned one corner of the dining room making the feel of Christmas that much more exciting!

    Lance Britt presented a wonderful program on decorating with natural and live greenery, flowers, and evergreens.  He also discussed the upcoming tour of homes in Wilcox County.  A delightful slide show gave numerous examples of Lance’s design work and how to arrange and exhibit plants and decor.

     We all left with a delightful holiday attitude ready to go home to practice our decorating skills.
