The Lombard Garden Club will host a program on “Dahlias – Living Fireworks” with presenter Carol Cichorski on Friday, May 16.

Carol and her husband, Mike, “found” dahlias 25 years ago and their lives have not been the same since. They plant tubers in the basement in February and grow several hundred plants for their yard and garden club sales. Mike is past president of the Central States Dahlia Society. Carol loves to share their dahlia passion and let you know how you can easily grow dahlias too.

The program will be held at 1 p.m. at the Lombard Community Building, 433 E. St. Charles Road in Lombard. There is no charge and the public is welcome to attend.

The Lombard Garden Club, now in its 99th year, is an award-winning organization that promotes an interest in gardening and the beautification of the landscape in our community. The club welcomes fellow gardeners who enjoy learning opportunities and the company of others. For information, check the club’s website at www.lombardgardenclub.org.
