WILL REPEAT
!: GARDEN TOUR
French Broad River Gar
den Club Sponsoring
Series of Trips

ASHEVILLE, April 11.-A
spring garden tour will be con-
Quoted by the French Broad River
Garden club, on Tuesday, April
Is; Thursday, April 10; and Sat
urday, April 20. Admission tick
cts and descriptive folders may
be obtained at the Flat Iron
Flower shop, or at the entrance
to each garden. Each ticket pur-
chased will entitle the bearer to
visit all the gardens listed for
that particular day.
During the month of May, the
gardens of the region will again
be open to the public on the %,
"a and Is. Last year visitors
came from all parts of the coun-
try and it is hoped by sponsors of
the tours that the same interest
and enthusiasm will be shown
again this year.
On Tuesday, April 16, three
gardens in the county will be
open, those of:
Mrs. Alfred Barnard, at Sky
land; Mrs. George Haywood, near
Arden; and Mrs. James G.. X. Nc
Clure, Jr., at Hickory Nut Gap
farm g 1-2 miles beyond Fair
view, on the Charlotte highway.
On this same day Mr.. and Mrs.
Latta Clement are issuing an in
vitation to visit their Mix Mar
nurseries, at Biltmore. There one
may see many rare native plants
as Mr.. and Mrs. Clement have
been extraordinarily successful in
tfansplanting and cultivating
many varieties of great beauty
and interest that are little known
to the general public. AS the
French Broad River Garden club
is especially interested in native
flora, we desire to emphasize this
unusual opportunity.
On Thursday, April 18, eight
gardens in Grove Park and Bit
more Forest are to be open. They
are listed as follows:
In Grove Park: Mrs. s. w. Bat
tie.
In Biltmore Forest: Mrs. Burn
ham S. Colburn, Mrs. w. P. Her

William Knight, Mrs. Harvey
