Hi Tiffany,
We all bring a dish to pass and lots of plants to share. One RU we had about 300 plants so everybody got plenty and I got what was left over.
I always have a few door prizes and a speaker when I can get one. I also let everyone have clippers to take cuttings from my garden of whatever I have plenty of.
Guess everyone runs a RU a little different. Basically it is getting gardeners tog. sharing plants or seeds or whatever and make new friends and getting to see some old ones. We also learn a lot from each other.
BTW I've been to Opp years ago. It's not far from Laurel Hill, Fl. which is where my son used to live while he was in Air Force.
If you would like to come down you could stay at my house overnight as that's a long ride home and we often don't finish until about 4PM. Can you tell we share plant and garden stories.
Bonnie
