Amateur gardeners and floral arrangers displayed their love of all things horticultural at the Chestertown Garden Club’s Small Standard Flower Show which was presented to the community on Friday, November 4.

The theme “George Washington Slept Here” encouraged maximum creativity in tabletop displays such as “Crossing the Chesapeake, George Washington Supped at Ringgold House” and “There is a Tavern in the Town”.
Ribbons and a variety of special awards recognizing artistic and horticultural excellence were determined by a panel of expert judges. The show’s chairs were Phyllis Roberts and Rita Premo, both of Chestertown.
