Don’t miss the Fillmore Flower Show, April 15 and 16 at the Active Adult Center, 533 Santa Clara Street in Fillmore. There will be live music, a coffee corner, a plant boutique, youth art and compositions, and of course, LOTS of home grown flowers. Bring entries to the Center between 7:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. $5 no matter how many entries you have. All youth entries are free. Open for public viewing 1 p.m. - 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Please plan to attend.
Two fun divisions are Bouquets, Arrangements and Miniature Arrangements. Bouquets are presented in a single vase (provided by the exhibitor) that has flowers of the same variety, but with no filler material. Arrangements are flower displays up to 20 inches by 20 inches with containers provided by exhibitor that may include items appropriate to the scene. This division allows you to creatively express the theme, “Garden Treasures”. Another popular division is Miniature Arrangements and Bouquets. There are two groups in this division, not to exceed 4 inches by 4 inches and not to exceed 10 inches by 10 inches.
Youth may enter any division. Please see fillmoreflowershow.org for more information.
