Our Pumpkin Patch is Back!
Nine members of the Fairbanks Garden Club spent two Wednesday afternoons decorating real and artificial pumpkins for the club's Pumpkin Patch. Jeanette Evans, Annette Eddy, Carol Cook, Loretta Larraga, Joan Hartzel, Rose Favret, Nancy D'Attilio, Holly Dixon, and Janet Holmes donated their time to create these whimsical pumpkins. The women decorated over 30 pumpkins in a variety of designs. The pumpkins were set up at the club's October meeting where members visited the pumpkin patch and purchased the ones that caught their attention.

The yellow and purple irises are an heirloom variety from the original beds at the historic Fairbanks House in Dedham.
Marilyn's African Violets
January 2016

I purchased a few plants at the African Violet Show last spring. In the fall I noticed a lot of little babies coming up around one of them, so I divided them and got seven little violets, pictured in the square box. One bloomed with little white flowers and purple centers. In January I couldn't believe that the one I originally divided had sent up babies again! When they get bigger,  I'll divide them again.
