Friday


The Shasta Viburnums are just brilliant around the Club!  Over the past couple years, I've added more at #2 tees and #3 green.



Above is a Rhododendron that is coming back after being cut back 2 years ago.  It is so important to be patient with Rhododendron.  I had a few members who wanted to remove the stump 2 years ago.  As you can see today, that would have been a mistake.  Some recover quickly in a matter of a few months and others take a little longer.  In another 2 years, this will be a big shrub again, only healthy!  The strong root system allows the plant to grow more quickly compared to a rhododendron of the same size purchased at a nursery.
