2018 Lobstah Classic

This year was another great meeting.  We started the day with our silent auction.  Members and visitors donate plants, art and anything else of interest.  Visitors to the event are free to mingle, enjoy some coffee or tea, chat and catch up with friends and bid, bid, bid!

 

 

 

 

 

This year we had around 105 items to browse through.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our first speaker was Chuck Doughty from Cochato Nursery in Holbrook Massachusetts.

Chuck brought his lovely wife Sue assist

him…sort of.

 

 

 

 

After lunch, Mike Georges from Ontario described his breeding program which focuses on toothy cultivars

 

 

 

 

 

 

Following our speakers, we held a live auction of club-purchased and donated daylilies and hostas.  As is tradition, we finished the day with a Maine “lobstah” dinner overlooking Casco Bay.  Thank you to everyone who came, donated, spoke, and assisted the days events.  We also would like to thank SMCC, Sodexo, and Dock’s Restaurant.  See you again in 2019!
