Blue Bonnet Garden Club

Master gardener discusses ornamental grasses

Mineral Wells Index

Submitted by Bebe Smith | Special to the Index

Master gardener Helen Pemberton was assisted by Cindy Vaught in presenting a very informative PowerPoint program on ornamental grasses at the May Blue Bonnet Garden Club’s May meeting.

The presenters were very knowledgeable and answered numerous questions from the members about the grasses and their personal experience with many of them. This meeting was held in Lone Camp at the home of Betty Brazil with co-hostess Marlene Fritz. There were 17 ladies in attendance. Mary Lou Fairclo won the surprise gift. Willie Mae Hubbard’s name was drawn to receive the pot of ornamental grass that the master gardeners gave away.

  • Reflections on Neighborhood Watch and Solicitations

    A couple of things happened that encouraged me to write this particular column. First of all, our neighborhood formed a Neighborhood Watch group. This is being encouraged by Chief of Police Dean Sullivan and supported by the Mineral Wells Police Department. As we have had one home invasion in our neighborhood (burglars broke in while the neighbors were asleep in bed), we really want to watch out for each other!
