Magnolia The January meeting of the Magnolia Garden Club was held at the home of Ester Muench. Upon arrival, members enjoyed heart- shaped apple muffins and cookies and had a choice of wassail, coffee or orange juice to drink. Sandra Murphrey, President, reminded members that the club was organized in 1952. Its purpose was to encourage amateur ‘gardeners, promote civic beautification, and to preserve wild flowers. After reading the Club Collect, members discussed old business. A report was given on the downtown beautification project. Tulips and pansies were planted in early December. The group made plans for the February meeting, which will be a trip to the Southern Living Show. Club members will meet at the ARP parking lot at 9:30 a.m. and will car pool to Charlotte. Points were taken and Team I had 12 points and Team II 17 points. Bess Phifer presented a program on “Flowers for Foliage and Cutting.” She said flowers soothe the soul and it is nice to have a few cut flowers in the home. Some pointers she gave were that flowers are arranged more casual than in the past. Before cutting flowers for arrangements, decide on the type of arrangement being Garden Club meets planned and cut three different pieces for spikes. : The main items in an arrangement are spikes, rounds and fillers. Eucalyptus is one of the most used flower for spikes. Rounds are any blossom and ‘most any type of foliage can be used for fillers. Always cut flowers at an angle. Cut flow- ers at different stages of growth. It is important to condition flowers for an arrangement. Susan Kiser and Geneva Caveny made beautiful arrangements in a mug. Both arrangements had good lines, nice foliage and good color.
