   Everyone: I am delighted to announce that we are having our first meeting in Los Angeles County in about four years. Our March 16, 2024 meeting will be at the home and garden of Sergio at 13811 Philadelphia Street, Whittier CA 90601. This will be the third time we have visited Sergio's garden, and we were long overdue. Sergio started the garden back in 2008 and had it fully planted out by 2010. Overall, there's 150 palms and 50 cycads, for a real glorious jungle, plus a big palapa by the waterfall pool, and a palapa in the pool. A true Palm-Themed Scream Dream. The majority of Sergio's plants were started from 5 gallon size or larger. Spec…

    OUR MAY 20, 2023 MEETING IN RIVERSIDE CALIFORNIA BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN We have not forgotten about you-all in the Inland Empire and Los Angeles Counties!

Orange and San Diego had managed to avoid crises, at least most of the time. Our goal is to get back out with a vengeance. This is the start. If you have a …
