CAMBRIDGE — The Cambridge Yacht Club was the scene of the Dorchester Garden Club’s April 13 meeting. The April meeting is always a favorite for the club and this year was no exception, with a near-capacity crowd of active members, associate members, guests and prospective new members. A stunning array of daffodils grown by club members, along with other horticultural entries graced the room as well as entries in two classes of Underwater Designs. Judges for the mini-flower show Division I Horticulture were the mother/daughter team and accredited daffodil judges, Deana Kozak and Beverly Shelly ... and Fran Collins and Patti Hopkins for Division II Design. National Garden Club Master Flower Show Judge and American Daffodil Society Judge, Faye Phillips, served as Consultant. President Jeanne Bernard called the meeting to order and reports were given by club officers and committee chairpersons. Following a lovely spring lunch served by the Cambridge Yacht Club, Samantha McCall, the proprietor of Fleurish, a floral boutique that creates elegant, artistic and eco friendly floral designs, was the guest speaker. Her presentation/demonstration was titled “New Trends in Floral Arranging.” Based on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, Ms. McCall, an avid gardener herself, specializes in combining texture, color and unique plant materials in her designs and Dorchester Garden Club meeting attendees had the opportunity to watch and learn as she created one beautiful design after another. As a special treat for participants, these designs were raffled off at the conclusion of her presentation. Pictured is prospective new member, Steve Heyneman, who was one of the lucky winners.
