The fall

season approaches but the Garden Club of Georgia and

Stone Mountain's Yellow Daisy Flower Show will usher in

the sensations of spring this weekend. The Yellow Daisy

Festival, an annual event, brings together garden clubs

and amateur horticulturists from the 19 counties in the

district. This year's show is entitled "Vive La

Daisy."

The yellow

daisy was named for a French amateur botanist and

librarian. The show will salute the Gallic influence in

its heritage. This year also will mark the first time

that the Tyrone Garden Club is making an entry in the

flower show. The setting will be called

"Tete-a-Tete," meaning rendevous, and will be a

functional vignette created as a secluded spot on the

terrace. Many other designees will depict the French

theme.

Any amateur

gardener may enter horticulture and is encouraged to call

404-872-5730 for entry information. The show will be in

the Stone Mountain Inn at Stone Mountain Park from 3-7

p.m. Friday, Sept. 10, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m Saturday,

and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. Parking permits are

required for each vehicle entering the park.

The Tyrone

Garden Club always accepts new members to the club. They

meet second Tuesdays at 7 p.m. If you are interested,

contact Teresa R. Lee at 770-486-8962 or e-mail [email protected] .
