Garden Club of Woodbridge Hosts Garden Club of Orange

Garden Club of Woodbridge October 15 Meeting

The Garden Club of Woodbridge hosted the Garden Club of Orange on October 15. There was a full house as guest speaker Stephanie Fusco of Terri’s Flower Shop in Naugatuck created designs for the four seasons. Orange and pink “Free Spirit” roses, yellow mums, kangaroo paw, seeded eucalyptus (to give texture) and alstroemeria were used in the designs. Stephanie used dried, curly willow branches to make a trellis for the summer design, and showed the group how to make a tied floral bouquet by adding flowers at a 45 degree angle to keep the design balanced. Club members entered a raffle to take home Terri’s designs. Shown in the photo behind Stephanie's designs are Joanne D’Angelo, president of the Garden Club of Woodbridge, Stephanie Fusco, and Linda Bradford, president of the Garden Club of Orange.
