Spring has Sprung at Garden Club of Jacksonville
The Garden Club of Jacksonville, which has been in Jacksonville for nearly 100 years, had everything coming up roses…and irises, and lilies, and daisies…for flower lovers in Northeast Florida. Recently, the Garden Club hosted two large events at its Riverside Avenue location.
In late March, the Late Bloomers Garden Club (LBGC) presented its Garden Club of America Flower Show, titled “On a Clear Day You Can See Forever.” The two-day show featured hundreds of flowers and plants, all grown and exhibited by garden club floral designers from Florida, Georgia and beyond. Submissions were judged by experts in their fields in four divisions: floral design, horticulture, photography and education, with the striking creations reflecting current trends in floral artistic design.
The Garden Club also hosted its own signature event the second weekend of April, the 2023 Blooms Galore & More, with a sprout sale, vendors, kid zone and food trucks. Blooms Galore & More kicked off with a preview party on April 7, which offered guests early shopping admission to the event, as well as live music, beverages, and a container display competition, with bidding on the competition entries.
