Cape Fear Botanical Garden hopes to spur its growth with music and food. The garden is sponsoring a fundraising "Rhythm and Blooms" concert and shrimp boil Thursday at Campbellton Landing.
The Cape Fear Botanical Garden's fall plant sale was a great success, thanks to those who bought and sold plants. I was delighted that many garden members purchased paw-paw trees for the first time. These are beautiful natives, and they are in full bright yellow color now.
The Sandhills Orchid Society offered a good deal during its annual Growers Day event. The event was held Oct. 31 at Fayetteville Technical Community College's Horticulture Building at the Cape Fear Botanical Garden.
1. Because of today's weather forecast, the Rhythm & Blooms Concert and Shrimp Boil will be at the King Party Rental Warehouse, 1226 Ramsey St. It is scheduled to start at 6:30p.m. and the concert with the Blue Dogs is scheduled for 8 p.m. The cost is $30 at the door.
