GCD Summer Calendar of Events 2025

July


Thursday, July 17 at 6:30 pm. The Wild Coffee Committee meeting at Garden Club of DeLand, 865 Alabama Avenue to review progress on identifying and labeling Florida Natives and Florida Friendly plants around the clubhouse building.


* Please Note: There has been a change in July date for the Downtown Planters. Maintenance for planters will be on Saturday, July 19….  Not on the 12th. Start time is usually 7:15 or 7:30 in this hot period.  The design is holding up well for the most part. Frequent rain has  helped along with good selection and planting. Howry still has some  irrigation glitches but the city is aware and monitoring it. We have  replaced a few plants on the north and south west pots. Our test run for  begonia propagation is working out somewhat for pedestal begonias. 

The  plan is to have only jasmine in alternating pots with begonias and  Dichondra silver falls or jasmine. The various odd plants of zinnias,  celosia and snap dragons have been removed to give a more consistent  design. The stray flowers had a messy look so we tidying up the  alternating pattern. 

The jasmine and dichondra  will need untangling and some trimming on the 19th. We may also do some  more begonia propagation if the large plants hold up in the heat. 

Thanks to all planter maintenance people. The boulevard looks awesome!
