Summer flower show in Kirkton
KIRKTON - The Kirkton
Horticultural Society held its sum-
mer flower show and competition,
Festival of Flowers, at the Kirkton-
Woodham Community Centre Aug.
12.
A feast for the senses greeted
guests, as directors Cathy Barker
and Doris Richardson had trans-
formed the entrance of the centre
into an elegant Victorian garden
party setting, complete with settee
and whimsical obelisks and planti-
ngs.
After the singing of "0 Canada,"
president Sandra Kemp thanked
Marjorie Johns for her prelude
piano selections of seasonal
favourites.
Director Robert Traut then
thanked all eight participants who
had prepared their gardens for the
June 22 garden tour. This was held
in conjunction with Kirkton
Horticultural Society and South
Perth Centennial School, with a por-
tion designated for new playground
equipment at the school.
Traut then reviewed the successful
evening workshop conducted at
BlackCreek Flower Farm,
Sebringville. Laura Barker of
Catherine Wright Designs, Stratford,
instructed approximately 35 people
on the construction of a hand -tied
bouquet, with fresh flowers provid-
ed from the farm.
Owner/operator Karin McDougall
gave guided tours through the cut
flower fields and the eight -acre
gladiola farm.
Participants enjoyed viewing the
numerous new gladiola specimen
test plots that plant breeders have
selected for Black Creek Flower
Farms to produce.
Director Toni Denotter then
announced the upcoming trip on
Sept. 23 to Glendale Herb Farm
near Forest. This workshop/tour
includes the opportunity to make a
dried floral wreath or tussie mussie.
Director Gertrude Willis then
reminded the audience of the Nov.
12 Christmas design workshop con-
ducted by floral designer Tony
Manders.
A portion of the proceeds from this
workshop will be given to a worthy
charity.
The highlight of the evening
arrived as director Rosemary
Schaefer introduced the featured
speaker, Paul Zamit, of Plant World
in Toronto.
A graduate of the University of
Guelph's plant program, Zamit has
been a guest speaker/demonstrator
at numerous garden shows, includ-
ing Canada Blooms, and featured in
House and Garden and Canadian
Gardening magazines.
Using a slide presentation and
printed handout, Zamit illustrated
and described the principles and
practices of putting a container gar-
den together, and then demonstrat-
ed the `thriller, filler, spiller' con-
cepts by producing three container
gardens for the appreciative audi-
ence.
These enormous containers were
later auctioned by director Owen
O'Brien, with the proceeds allocated
to the programs of the Kirkton
Horticultural Society.
Everyone enjoyed this presenta-
tion and especially Zamit's availabil-
ity at the end of the evening to
answer any and every gardening
query.
Director and show chair Cindy
Bilyea then announced the results of
the flower show competition.
Bilyea reported that judges Cathy
Filson and Janice Maciver made
