.he joint New Hampshire Plant Growers' Associa- 

 tion/New Hampshire Landscape Association Winter 

 Meeting held on January 13 at the Granite Street Bar & 

 Grill in Manchester was attended by over 125 people 

 from both organizations. 



What these people saw were four talks given by 

 four people on four topics (Paul lames — annuals and 

 their uses; |ohn Bryant — aspects of running a successful 

 business; Elsa Bakalar — perennials and garden design; 

 Lynn Cohen — marketing — particularly displays and 

 signage). All were excellent — each covered his or her 

 topic thoroughly and gave aesthetic pleasure and use- 

 ful information. But you left this day with an impres- 

 sion of these four strong and contrasting personali- 

 ties — each successful in his or her own way — and think- 

 ing that the range of possibility and innovation within 

 the Green Industry is still enormous. 



We thank the speakers for all the time and en- 

 ergy spent in preparing and giving their presentations. 



Major credit (and thanks) for the success of this 

 day must go to Peter van Berkum (NHPGA) and Chuck 

 Simpson (NHLA) who coordinated the whole event and 

 to Guy Hodgdon (NHLA) and Chris Robarge (NHPGA) 

 who organized the registration. 



it was a very successful meeting.
