Recognition won by Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Funk at the Oakland Flower Show, early
in May, has given this area a boost which
cannot be measured in dollars and cents,
for, through the showing made by them,
as pictured here, made it possible for this
area to be granted a choice spot at the
show next year. Howard Gilkey, manager
of the show, was in this area to contact
and arrange for the 1948 exhibit.
Pictured is the display of Mr. and Mrs.
George Funk, which, according to many
who saw the display, “stole” the show.
It was almost the first time that ( r o f t
lilies were given a chance to be seen in
mass display, and to be viewed by so
many people.
With “Lily Blossom Time In Brook
ings” being pushed as an advertising fea
ture, Croft lilies will “come into fame.”
