Chicago weather wasn’t bad. It was downright lovely Saturday, and not bad at all yesterday.
The Chicago Botanical Gardens are wonderful AND they treated our Lily Society like Royalty. They gave us a big beautiful room for the show, they made available meeting room space of various sizes, their staff was at attention and running to get things we needed, and now it seems they will even store the local group’, tubes and bases for future shows. This is unprecedented!
and compared to what the Missouri botanical gardens in St. Louis does for our plant societies it is such a contrast. MO BOT pretty much discourages plant societies from public shows or much else from anymore. Well, they are not going to be in my will.
