Join us for our
Orange County
meeting in Fullerton and La Habra

 

 

 

Visit the homes of two longterm PSSC members, both of whom have had palms named after them, Louis Hooper & Bill Dickenson with the meeting following at The Fullerton Arboretum

 

Schedule:
10:00 AM - The garden of Louis and Carol Hooper, 505 N. Lois St., La Habra 90631.  If you have not seen the Hooper’s garden, it is a must. The vast array of mature, rare palms is amazing, all grown to perfection.

11:00 AM - The garden of Bill Dickenson, 2313 Lark Ellen Dr., Fullerton 92835. Bill is a long time PSSC member, and has many interesting specimens. Be sure to check out the hybrid that Bill produced and is named after him, (Lytoagrus dickensonii) Lytocaryum weddellianum x Syagrus romanzoffiana. He also has many other tropical plants including a very nice Ti plant collection.

12:30PM - The Fullerton Arboretum.
We will be meeting at the Oak Hall classroom and patio section at the Arboretum.  We will be having a potluck where the society will provide the chicken.  Please bring your favorite dish to serve 8-10 people.

1:00 PM - Jack Sayers slide show talk on Costa Rica. Jack will be giving a slide show presentation of the recent IPS bi-annual adventure to Costa Rica. This will be very nice for all of those who were unable to make that Costa Rica trip.  At 1:30 PM the meeting, auction, and raffle will begin.

1:30PM - Auction and Raffle -
We hope that you can attend this special day!
