Some of the Society’s young and up-and-coming green thumbs – Seth Leask, Tessa Leask and Lynn Wilde – enjoy examining potential prize-winning selections from the Camrose garden of Janine Carroll.
Gardeners wait with eager anticipation for the annual Camrose & District Horticultural Society Rose City Rose & Lily Show and Tea. This year it takes place on Thursday, July 17, from 2 to 5 p.m. at Camrose Masonic Hall on 48 Street. Whether you want to showcase flowers which you have grown, or you simply prefer to enjoy the smell and visual appeal of the best from local gardens, this is a come-to-appreciate-and-admire kind of annual presentation. Entry is by donation to the Society. Entry forms for competitors are available at Bea’s Blooms, Pedersen’s Florists, Nest Floral Studio, Camrose Heritage Railway Station & Park and Centra Cam.
