Spring Flower Festival 2011

My first Kingwood Spring Flower Festival and I took home two ribbons.  Day of the show turns out all I had to enter was a hosta leaf and a Mountain Bluet.  But that was enough as both took home a ribbon.  Second place hosta leaf and Honorable Mention Mountain Bluet.

I had high hopes for a herb basket design and also to bring in an iris.  But my chives, for the basket design and my iris were on their last hurrah just the day before.  By show day, they were not show worthy.  The hosta plant was given to me last year by my good friend Kathy M.  The Mountain Bluet came from a plant I got last year, which was an extra from the herb garden.  The show was great fun, hanging out with Elin D and Lynn H.  Next blog I will show some of the other exhibits -
