style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Ginny Barker has been gardening since the age of nine,
however until joining the Wildflower Garden Committee during the chairmanship of
Ann Bennett, her interest in wildflowers was chiefly one of appreciation rather
than cultivation.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>She now looks at
those neglected spots as a site for wildflowers rather than a spot to be mulched
and ignored.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>A wonderful quote for
Ginny is “rather than transforming the location to support the bloom, locate the
natural bloom that will perform the transformation on its
own.”<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
