The Wellesley Garden Study Group, a garden club that has been active in town for about 65 years, invites you to a School Gardens event on Wednesday, January 25, 9:30, in the Parkman Room at Elm Bank Reservation.

This free event will start with coffee, and the guest lecturer, John Forti, Director of Horticulture at Elm Bank will speak at 10:30.

The Wellesley Garden Study Group knows their way around the plant world. Last year they created the most fabulous arrangement for the Museum of Fine Arts “Art In Bloom” exhibit:

Art in Bloom, Wellesley Garden Study Group — The painting is Drummer Boy, by Winslow Homer.

Here is the interpretation of Drummer Boy, by Cathy Broderick and Pam Breitfelder. I want to both eat it up on the Fourth of July AND use it as a dining room table centerpiece.

More here on other Wellesley gardening groups who participated in that event, popping out their creativity with plant material in beautiful and wondrous ways.
