APRIL 20, 2006

program of the Portland Chapter of the
American Rhododendron Society

THERE IS MORE TO RHODODENDRONS THAN THE FLOWERS

Presented by
Bill Stipe
GLYNNEDEN GARDENS


This April Bill Stipe will be here from GLYNNEDEN GARDENS where he is the owner and sole proprietor. This garden specializing in Rhododendrons is located at his home in Whidbey Island.
We grow rhodies for several reason, the flowers, the pleasure, and all the benefits they offer. Bill Stipe wants to remind us that the foliage is just as important as the flower. Come learn about the glory of rhododendron foliage from a true rhododendron zealot!
Some of you may know Bill Stipe as an accomplished writer, past manager of Meerkerk Garden, and an ARS Bronze Metal in 1993.

The program will be followed by a HYBRID RHODODENDRON AUCTION
