Our floriculture class designed some beautiful flower arrangements today! It is arranged in a modern Japanese style called "Ikebana," which translates to "arranging flowers." The design in the picture was arranged and modeled by the lovely Clayci Crandall, a senior at MMHS.
The greenhouse is full to the brim with beautiful flowers and veggies! Mrs. Gardner's students do the work of planting, transplanting, watering, and the plants have really transformed the greenhouse! It is time to sell the plants and earn funding for Mrs. Gardner's program. The sale starts today!
