Potomac Valley Chapter ARS

Potomac Valley Chapter
of the
American Rhododendron Society
Activities

Here are some of the things we do in the Potomac Valley Chapter:

  • Regular Meetings
    We have five to six meetings each year including a banquet.
  • Flowershow and Plant Sale
    We have a Flower Show and Plant Sale at the National Arboretum each year.
  • Chapter Newsletters
    We send out four newsletters each year which contain general chapter information as well as informative articles related to rhododendrons and azaleas.
  • Native Azaleas and Chapter Field Trip
    Many ARS members in our district have a special interest in native azaleas. In June of 2002, our chapter organized a field trip to Roan Mountain and the Smokies to see native azaleas and rhododendrons blooming in the wild.
  • Plants for Members Program
    Our chapter propagates rare rhododendron and azalea clones as well as reliable "good doers" that we distribute to our members and sell at our plant sale.
  • Seed Exchange
    We secure rare seeds and hybrid crosses donated by various persons that we offer to our members.
