October 2024
We had a great time at our Workshop on October 19. We learned a lot, enjoyed some hands-on learning, shared leaves with each other and had lots of fun! In addition, participants received a special surprise -- a rooted leaf cutting of a special variegated semi-miniature African Violet which participants will grow as a project plant. Many thanks to our great instructors, Diane and Pierre, for organizing and leading us through the workshop!

Our January meeting featured a presentation titled "Streptocarpus, Sinningias and Algae" by Dale Martens, a renowned grower and hybridizer of Streptocarpus and other gesneriads. Dale (shown holding Streptocarpus "Dale's Smurf Party") provided us with great tips about growing, fertilizers, pest control and kindly answered questions after her presentation. We were very pleased to welcome members of La Société des Saintpaulias de Montréal, the Toronto African Violet and Gesneriad Society, the Greater Ottawa Water Garden Horticultural Society and some local plant lovers to the meeting.
