February’s meeting was all about romance as the date was Valentine's day. Joy Tunmore opened the meeting with a warm welcome to everyone followed by the sad news of the passing of Marjorie Greenwood. Marjorie will be missed by all at Breckland Flower and Garden Club as shehad played a huge role - past president and chairman along with supplying plants and cuttings from her own garden for the monthly plant sales table. She was a very popular lady dedicating her life to family, friends and the community. Members shared a minute’s silence followed by a short slide show in honour of Marjorie. Dilky thanked everyone for their show of kindness and support for her family.
The special guest this month was Vicki Hease with her demonstration titled “Treasured moments”. Vicki created six beautiful arrangements, describing the lives of a young couple from engagement through to celebrating their Pearl Wedding anniversary. As she worked she told a story catching the imagination of her audience and the essence of romance. Apparently she has now created a part two demonstration which hopefully she will bring to the Club on a future visit.
The raffle was drawn, with several ladies winning one of Vicki’s arrangements. The competition was judged by Vicki and the winner this month was Allison Vivien, Well done to everyone that entered, all the entries were stunning.
The next meeting is the Club’s AGM, on Thursday 14 March starting at 2pm. There will be a workshop and members need to bring a bunch of pink tulips and scissors. Then there will be cakes plus the handing over of a cheque to the NNUH Breast Cancer Care Unit. Prior to the next meeting, the last event for this charity will be a Fashion Show at M and Co in Attleborough on Wednesday 6 March at 7pm. Tickets are limited but still available.
