One native shrub that you may not know is snowberry. It provides nice dark green foliage spring through fall and white flowers tinged with pink in the spring. The real show is the waxy-white berries that give this bush its name and provide food for many species of game birds from fall into winter. The fruit, or berries, of the native snowberry, also known as ice apple, Symphoricarpus albus, is enjoyed by pheasant, grouse, quail and other birds as well. Symphoricarpos is a member of the Honeysuckle family, Caprifoliaceae. This genus of plants is known collectively as snowberry. S. albus (alba), common snowberry, is native to the eastern half of the United States.

11am-11:45am brunch. 11:45am-1pm Business Meeting. 1pm-2:30+ Presentation. We try hard to stick to this schedule. It does not allow much time for conversation, but you may arrive at 10am or earlier to chat with friends.  This redbud tree (above) was planted on Arbor Day, 2013, east of the municipal center. The club also planted a flowering plum tree (below), to the west of the municipal center. 
 CONGRATULATIONS DIANNE AND EILEEN! They entered into a competitive class (medium niche) at the 2013 Philadelphia Flower Show and won first place! Going into the competition they only knew that they would be doing an arrangement with foliage and no flowers.  The Mount Laurel Garden Club was organized in 1964, and is committed to civic and community projects. Membership is open to both residents and non residents who are interested in horticulture or flower arranging. Goals of our Club
