Paeony Cut Flower Show
Christchurch Paeony are holding their first Cut Flower Show on 27th November at The Kiosk in the Botanic Gardens. We NEED your flowers; one or many! (flowers can easily be cool stored in your own fridge - see below)
Entry is FREE. Register your approximate number of entries here: bit.ly...
To save flowers in the bud, you can cut the bloom in the 'soft bud' stage with approx 40cm stem. Strip the leaves and wrap the dry flower in paper and store in a bag on the fridge. Label with the name or description of the flower. Amazingly, the bloom will keep up to 8weeks and will rehydrate overnight with the stalk in water. Come and see all the varieties at the show. And/or join the club here: bit.ly...
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
