Van Veen and Rhodo Species Order

If you are planning to submit an order to me for plants from Van Veen, or species for a group order to the Rhodo Species Foundation, please remember that the deadline is the end of this month (12/31).

Note that I do have enough species orders to make the group order a go, so if you were holding off on this, please go ahead and send me your order.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks! 

Joe Bruso

Species Rhododendron Group Order

If you are interested in purchasing species rhododendrons, read on.

 

I'm gauging whether there is sufficient interest in ordering species rhododendrons from the Rhododendron Species Foundation to submit a group order.  Shipping costs for small numbers of plants are a fairly large percentage of their cost.  Shipping costs drop substantially with larger orders, however, making it advantageous to submit orders together.

 

I've attached the Spring 2014 RSF Plant Catalog.  As usual, there are many interesting selections, including new items.  It contains some hybrids and companion plants as well.

Please review the catalog and let me know if you are interested in participating in a group order (and which plants you would buy) by December 30 at the latest.  Plants would be scheduled for delivery/distribution the same time/place as the Van Veen distribution.

 

Thanks,

Joe Bruso

Parking for Sunday Chapter Meeting

from Pete Littlefield

Chapter Members

 

For those of you attending the Chapter meeting on Sunday here is a clarification on the parking situation.  There will be a wedding going on in the Hunnewell Building during the afternoon so we are being asked to not park anywhere around that building.  We can drop off any food, plants, etc. at the rear of the East Wing (side nearest the Display Garden) but we must drive in through the rear gate.  The rear gate is beyond the Putnam Building and greenhouses and around the back of the Cottage.  After dropping off your goods you may either return to the Putnam parking lot or find a place to park around the rear of the East Wing.  We should be able to park most cars near the East Wing if we are careful.

See you Sunday
