Edmonds Floretum Garden Club

10/03/2026

Floretum gave a grant to Spruce Elementary for the 2025-2026 school year to start a tree club in the aftermath of a surprise removal of a beautiful old tree (Esperanza) on the school grounds. They did a beautiful job and are continuing this year with an event that community members might want to attend. Please see the flyer for details and learn more our program at floretum.org/scholarships-grants.

The new yearbook is now available to those members who requested one. It’s a treasure trove of information!

Get ready for a big year of learning and sharing! Guests are always welcome at our meetings, but we'd love to have you join the club and get the most out of everything we offer. Visit floretum.org and look for the membership tab.

Isn’t this beautiful? The color coordination between chair, paint, plants, and pot is just spot on. Kudos to whoever designed this.

It’s spiky blue season in the garden. These drought tolerant, brilliant blue pollinator magnets are having their moment. Eryngium, left, and Echinops, right, appreciate full sun, well-drained lean soil (we mean it!), and room to fill out. The color is to die for.

Look, we’ve all made planting mistakes. As weird and wonderful as it is, the monkey puzzle tree, or Araucaria araucana for you nomenclature wonks, can reach skyward 70 feet or more in PNW landscapes. It wants to be 35 feet wide. In front of a picture window and under the eaves is not going to end well. Right plant, right place, always.

Another rollicking good fun 4th of July parade is in the books. Thanks to all the hardworking volunteers that put this Flower Bed (get it? 😄) together, and all the lovely people lining the route who shouted out thanks for what we do here in Edmonds.
