An active group of GCMGA members work each Tuesday at Vines under the coordination of Shirley Bohm. Each area of the park is tackled on a rotating basis and these volunteers really makes the park beautiful. This group has taken things a step further and worked with Peggy Moss and Gwinnett County Parks and Rec to host a quarterly event open to the public. The next class will be held on May 6th, 2014 and will be on pruning azaleas. Related Images:

June 2014 General Meeting
Our June 16, 2014 meeting featured Rani Von Württemburg. Rani is a Consulting Rosarian and came to us from the Greater Gwinnett Rose Society She joined the Rose Society in 2004 to find out why her five roses were not big and healthy. Although she has lived in Gwinnett County since 1979, Rani was born and grew up in a tropical county where there is always a current crop of flowers, fruits and vegetables. She is an avid gardener who grows many of her own herbs and vegetables and presently has about forty-five roses in her garden ranging from miniature to Hybrid Gigantea. Rani brought a variety of cut roses from her own garden and shared many tips and ideas not only about roses, but natural fertilizer and insect control ideas. Related Images:
