Seagrove Garden Club

Spring weddings have returned and generous families have donated hundreds of blooms for Flower Shuttle fans to arrange into small arrangements Today, we were spoiled with amazing hydrangeas. Last week, we had a rainbow of colorful roses. Thanks to all the members who show up early, bring greenery, set up tables, arrange flowers, cut oasis, make bows and handle so many tasks, then help clean up or deliver flowers. Let’s do it again next week!
