BY KENDRA SHORTREED Five members of the “Green Machines” 4H club met at Ruth Axtmann’s to discuss plants. Each member had to start three different plants in three different ways: one - cutting the stem off two - a clipping of a plant three - ripping off a leaf. The discussion was lead on bulbs, insects that destroy plants, and how to build a good terrarium. Two fields trips were enjoyed by members to a florist, and green­ house. At the flower shop members learned how to arrange flowers, and prolong them. It was really interest­ ing to watch the florist arrange the flowers so quickly and attractively.
