Yes...in April at a regular meeting we have an informal show of things in bloom then. Some years there are just 3-4 specimens but the last two years have been early years and we had about 75 medians. Then in the first week or two of May we have an AIS accredited show which is usually mostly medians. This year we had about 150 entries. Then two weeks later we have what we refer to as the big show which is usually mostly TBs. That show is Saturday. We are lucky to have a good mix of hard workers, a great facility, and just picked up some new members who are really willing to help. Then we have our sale and auction about the first of August and an awards banquet in Sept. Sunday I am going to a friends garden in the northern part of the state....he grows a large garden of newer things. I'm hoping for an overcast day for better pictures and my comfort.
