Master Gardeners enjoyed a drive to the country (Romeo) on May 8th to see Trudy  & Ralph Gregory's Garden .
   M.G.Trudy said to come see my garden while all the daffodils and other spring bulbs and non-bulb spring plants are blooming their little hearts out. (Also before all the seedling volunteers take over and make the place look  like a jungle.)  
   In photo are a few Master Gardeners enjoying some refreshments after the tour.

The bus tour was a success with Pat Cencek doing a wonderful job of scheduling a nice warm day. Lunch was at Simbads on the River in Detroit and we attended an Herb Sale in Grosse Pointe with  a view of the wonderful landscaped Gardens along Lake Shore Drive in Grosse Pointe.
