Flower Show

Note:  There will not be a Flower Show in 2023, but we anticipate that there will be a Flower Show in Spring of 2024.

Also, there are no plans for a Plant Sale in Spring of 2023.

The 2022 Flower Show, a Great Success for the Community and for the Club

“What a fabulous Flower Show TVGC presented to the community this year!” 

That was the comment we heard over and over from guests who attended the event. 

As Flower Show chairpersons, those are our sentiments as well. 

It was totally a team effort and we owe credit for the show’s success to all the members who contributed

their time and talents, sweat and tears (actually we don’t think there were any tears). 

We want to say how much we appreciate you and extend a huge THANK YOU to you all.

Temecula Valley Garden Club Flower Show and Plant Sale

Saturday April 23, 2022 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Gardens in southwest Riverside County are bursting with blooms, just in time for the Temecula Valley Garden Club’s 34th annual Flower Show and Plant Sale. This popular event will take place on April 23rd from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the Temecula Community Recreation Center at 30875 Rancho Vista Dr. Temecula. Admission is free.

This year’s theme is “Garden Kaleidoscope, The Exciting World of Color”, featuring hundreds of horticultural, floral design and youth exhibits. The TVGC is a member of National Garden Clubs, Inc. and California Garden Clubs, Inc. As such, the Flower Show is fully accredited and meets all requirements of a Standard Flower Show as set by the NGC. 

TVGC invites everyone to participate in the show either as an exhibitor or guest. The horticultural division provides an opportunity for local gardeners to share their gardening successes and for visitors to see what grows well in the Temecula Valley. The design division gives exhibitors an opportunity to express their creativity through arrangements of plant materials and provide viewers with inspiration to create their own designs.  If you are interested in entering the show, please call 909-455-2253 for information and a show schedule. 

Don’t miss the Plant Sale which offers a large supply of nursery quality plants and decorative, unique planters available for purchase at bargain prices. 

The Temecula Valley Garden Club presents the Flower Show and Plant Sale to encourage an interest in all phases of home gardening, and to promote better horticultural practices and conservation of natural resources within the community. For more information, contact Jane Payne at 909-455-2253 or janepayne3@verizon.net.
