A Century in Bloom — Wheaton Garden Club Flower Show

The Wheaton Garden Club invites the community to join us for A Century in Bloom, a National Garden Clubs Standard Flower Show celebrating our club’s 100-year history.

The show will feature floral designs and horticulture exhibits inspired by important people, places, traditions, and milestones from the Wheaton Garden Club’s century of gardening and community service. From the gardens and pollinators we cherish today to the Victory Gardens of World War II and memorable flower shows of the past, each exhibit offers a glimpse into the club’s long history and its continuing commitment to gardening and horticultural education.

We invite gardeners, flower enthusiasts, artists, families, and anyone who simply enjoys beautiful flowers and creative design to come see the show.

2026 Pollinator Garden Spring Clean Up

Screenshot

On April 23, 2026 seven members of the garden club helped in the spring cleanup of our pollinator garden at Seven Gables Park in Wheaton. Nine bags of old foliage/debris were filled. A new mulch path was created to ease in the maintenance of the garden. Spring daffodils as well as beautiful purple iris were revealed as well as new growth of the perennials. The bees and butterflies won’t be far behind now!
