EARLY VOTING HOURS CHANGE FOR 95th SPECIAL ELECTION PRIMARY

Suburban Garden Club hosts second biannual flower show

By Rebekah Yearout The Germantown News  The Suburban Garden Club of Germantown’s biannual flower show, this year titled “Horse and Garden: The Flora and Fauna of Germantown, Tennessee” was held April 26 at the Germantown Country Club.  The show exhibited hundreds of designs, all created by SGC members. Many of the designs incorporated equestrian elements in keeping with the show’s theme, which flower show chair Elaine Hare said was an integral part of Germantown’s history.  See the entire story and additional photos in the May 3 edition of the Germantown News, out today.  The “Run for the Roses” display (Division II: Horticulture) at the Suburban Garden Club’s biannual flower show last Wednesday featured flowering shrubs and tree branches, such as dogwood, hydrangea, magnolia, flowering cherry, lilac and, of course, a variety of roses. / Photo by Rebekah Yearout
