On Monday, March 20, President Gunjan Anand began the monthly meeting by thanking the hospitality committee of Joanne Webb, Carmen Murphy and Grace Glatt for the good food and drinks that provide nourishment to the “starving” club members. Our treasurer gave a financial report that so far we have ample reserves and that our bank account has not been hacked.
Our speaker was Evelyn Weidner who owns Weidner Gardens Nursery in Encinitas, CA. She spoke of the many varieties of garden plants that do very well in Southern California. One of the hardiest plants she referred to were Begonias which are super tough, take either full sun and shade, bloom all summer and early fall, require water 2 times per week and good air circulation. Other topics included Hydrangeas (which do great sitting in a tray of water), Spider plants (remember the 60’s), Blueberries and Succulents to name a few. Pots of each plant were shown during the talk.
