ALBANY Club News:
For our November 2005 meeting, Susie and Tom Thompsonfrom Alabama spoke to us on Wildlife Habitat Gardening. They showed slides of their beautiful AHS Display Garden.Tony explained how to have a twelve-month garden that is attractive all year long.  He gave us ideas on how to make the garden inviting to birds, butterflies, and other little critters through out the year.

In December, we had a covered dish luncheon with music provided  by the Sutton Family.  Betty Ruth Gandy installed the club’s new officers for  2006. They are listed above.  Patrick Collins was  awarded a plaque in appreciation for the work he has  done, and continues to do with the youth.

Our January meeting was most exciting with  John Rice from Thoroughbred Daylilies in Kentucky  and Curt Hanson from Crintonic Gardens in Ohio conducting the program. They presented a beautiful  show. Both John and Curt have creative, uniqu gardens,  and have hybridized some gorgeous daylilies. Their daylilies can be seen on the Internet at the following addresses:  crintonic@core.com  and thorhems@earthlink.net

February 18th meeting will be special since we will have two new guests, a couple from Jasper, Al.,Jesse and Terah George of JTM Gardens. We’ve never had  them in Albany before, and we look forward to their visit. You can view their JTM Garden at the following  web address: jtmgarden@sonet.net

We are looking forward to seeing Dan and Jane Trimmer of Water Mill Gardens in Enterprise, Fl.  on March 18th .You can get a look at their beautiful daylilies via the Internet: DTrimm56@aol.com

Remember our members:
Long time member Laura Pye is undergoing radiation treatment.   Michael Odom, one of our youth members, was  in a very serious vehicle accident in October. He is making  progress with his recovery and we are so thankful that he is improving.
