December 2015 Newsletter

Note from the President-   EMHS is closing the 2015 year with the annual Christmas Party on December 10th, 2015 at the Mayfield Township Hall in Lapeer, MI 48446.  This is our biggest potluck of the year so please bring your favorite dish to pass and plan on having a lot of Holiday fun.  The details of the event are covered later in this newsletter.

I want to thank all of the people who donated plants, crafts, and other items to the raffle and door prize drawings.  The monthly raffle drawings are one of the biggest fund raisers for EMHS and the door prize drawings are an added bonus for members and visitors attending the meetings.
Next, I want to thank all of the people that brought food for the potlucks throughout the year.  One of the things EMHS is known for is the fantastic potlucks at the monthly meetings and this year was no exception.

A special thank you goes out to all of those that helped with the Michigan Hosta Tour hosted by EMHS.  The tour was a wonderful success and a lot of people were involved in the planning of the tour, prepping the gardens for viewing, and providing baked goods for the visitors as well as doing demonstrations for the visitors and working the day of the tour insured that the 2015 tour would be one to be enjoyed by all that attended.  The persons involved are to be applauded for all of their hard work!

Another thank you goes out to the EMHS Board.  This dedicated group of members continues to direct the entire group in an onward and upward fashion.  At our annual Board Meeting we discuss the plans for the next year which takes a number of hours, but ask you, our members to share your thoughts and ideas of what you would like to see planned for future meetings of EMHS. 

Lastly, I want to thank you, our members, for being the kind, helpful, sharing people you are toward each other and especially to our visitors.  Because of this, our club continues to grow and with that growth comes the ability to contract more well-known speakers which in turn assists us in our “Purpose” which is, to promote the interest of hostas and shade gardening; to extend horticultural education and activities to its members and the community.

See you at the December 10th meeting,
Glen Pace
EMHS President

Next Meeting- THE EMHS 2015 Christmas Party will be held on December 10th, 2015 at the Mayfield Twp. Hall, 1900 N. Saginaw, Lapeer, MI 48446.  This is our regular meeting place located just south of the point of M-24 and N. Saginaw, (the driveway just north of the Cemetery).  

The doors will open at 5:00 PM for decorating, Networking at 6:00 PM, Dinner at 6:30 PM, Business Meeting at 7:30 PM, and Gift Exchange at 7:45 PM. 

For those wishing to help decorate you can arrive as early as 5:00PM.  This annual event is always a lot of fun and a great way to end the year for the club.  The Club will provide the meat (ham) and table set-ups.  We do ask that everybody bring a dish to pass as this is our biggest potluck of the year.  

We will be doing the gift exchange as we have done in the past.  If you are interested in exchanging gifts, all you have to do is bring a wrapped non-gender-specific gift with a value of $10.  All the gifts will be laid at the front of the room and during the party we will call names from the sign-up sheet of the people who brought gifts.  When your name is called you go pick out a gift.  Nobody is required to bring a gift for the exchange, but if you do not bring one please understand that you will not be able to place your name on the list to pick one out.  This is the only way to assure that all people who bring a gift will receive one.

Review the October 08, 2015 Meeting Minutes on the blog.  We will vote to accept the minutes at the December 10th meeting.

October 2015 Newsletter

Note from the President-   The 2015 growing season is coming to a close.  The flowers of Colchicum are already opening and the Cyclamen hederifolium are in full bloom this week.  The smell of pumpkin is in most every baked good you can think of and I have already seen one farm with the jack-o-lanterns lined up with a for sale sign on them.  If you love the chrysanthemum this is your time of year too as nearly every store has them for sale and most of them are going to look good right through until winter. 

I had decided that this fall I was going to clear cut the gardens and rake everything from the beds to try and make spring clean-up easier.  The leaf litter in the beds is not problem to clean out, but the sticks falling from the trees make for many clogs in the leaf vacuum come spring.  So, if we can get all of the twigs and branches cleared form the beds before all the leaves fall it should facilitate an easier job of cleaning come spring.  Now we will see if I can accomplish that herculean task before the first snowfall.

We want to thank Nancy and Marv Marttila for providing a beautiful setting for our September meeting/Plant Exchange and for being such wonderful hosts.  Hopefully you have all of the plants you won at the EMHS Annual Plant Exchange last month planted in the ground so they can root in before the winter freeze. 

Our October meeting has a special speaker scheduled.  Gene Bush of DePauw, Indiana will present a program on Chasing the Rare and Unusual in Shade Gardens.  This program will start at approximately 6:45 PM and last about an hour with a question and answer period to follow.  Gene is a photographer and writer that has been featured in National Gardening publications, as well as a lecturer to many gardening groups whose presentations utilize pictures from his own garden which was the home of Munchkin Nursery for more than 20 years.  This meeting will be shared with the Saginaw Valley Hosta Society and we expect to have a very large attendance, therefore we will not be doing the typical EMHS potluck but will instead have refreshments of cookies, finger foods, and beverages.  Gene will be bringing plants to be used as raffle prizes so bring money with you to buy tickets for a chance to win one or more of the plants Gene will feature in his lecture.  100% of the proceeds from the raffle are used to further the Purpose of EMHS which is; to promote the interest of hostas and shade gardening; to extend horticultural education and activities to its members and the community. 

I look forward to seeing each and every one of you at the meeting on October 8th for a fun filled time of education and friendly conversation.

Sincerely,

Glen Pace
EMHS President

Date:  October 8th, 2015
Speaker:  Gene Bush
Place:  Mayfield Twp. Hall
             1900 N. Saginaw
             Lapeer, MI 48446
Gene E. Bush, tells the complete story of shade gardening based upon thirty-plus years of experience gardening in Southern Indiana.  He also had twenty-plus years as owner of Munchkin Nursery & Gardens, specializing in rare and unusual shade perennials. Gene’s gardens still specialize in native and non-native perennial shade and woodland plants.  This combination of plants forms the casual style of ‘Wild’ gardening. Gene photographs, writes articles, and lectures from personal experience based upon growing this native, non-native mix, of plants.

Gene’s garden writing and photographs can be found in issues of Fine Gardening, The American Gardener magazine of American Horticulture Society, State by State Indian Gardening Magazine. His weekly blog Shade Solutions appears Mondays at http://www.shadegardenexpert.com/blog/ . Look for his eBook “Shade Garden Solutions: Eight Essential Problems Solved for Successful Shade Gardening” on Amazon.com.

Power Point presentations and lectures are based upon personal gardening experience gained in his north-facing hillside garden. Photos were taken in his garden. He has given presentations to Morton Arboretum, Fernwood of Niles, MI and Olbrich Botanical Gardens in Madison, WI, along with Indianapolis Museum of Art, and garden clubs such as Master Gardener’s groups. Professional organizations such as Kentucky Nursery & Landscaping Assoc., Perennial Plant Assoc.  are frequent favorites for speaking.

First and foremost, Gene is a gardener having a good time in his garden.

About Gene

My passion as a shade gardener began late in life. To this day I do not know whether shade gardening found me, or I found it. I do know it all began by accident. It began literally by accident 30 plus years ago. I was riding a lawn tractor, attempting to mow on a steep hillside, when the tractor began sliding sideways. An old cedar stump stopped the tractor from continuing over a cliff edge, preventing serious injury. Since mountain goats refused to go up there to nibble grass without a parachute, I decided to plant the area in trees and shrubs.
I then made the mistake of requesting gardening catalogs so I could purchase a few shrubs. The rest, as they say, is history. My addiction to garden catalogs and gardening grows stronger with each passing year. From the beginning I have been fascinated with reading and researching, discovering plants new to me. Then the excitement of the chase; obtaining the plant, experiencing growing it to maturity; and to finally take its portrait.
My garden is a reflection of my tastes and sense of design along with an inherent desire to collect. The desire for something different or unusual continues to fill and enlarge the garden each year, and my passion remains as perennial as my plants.

About the Program on October 8th

Chasing the Rare & Unusual
         in Shade Gardens


Collecting is much like dating.
You become aware; something in your peripheral vision, a mention in a casual conversation, or perhaps a photo. Best yet an actual sighting. One good look and you are hooked. The hormones kick in and the chase is on. You pester your friends for an introduction.  Finally you meet and a new relationship begins to form.
Gene tells all about the loves of his life as a collector of the rare and unusual in his Southern Indiana Shade Garden.
