The Evergreen Chrysanthemum Association was established in 1947. We pattern our classification of blooms and show judging after the National Chrysanthemum Society of England. Most mums grown by our group are of English origin, though an increasing number of our cultivars originate from many parts of the world including the United States, France, Australia, Japan, and China. The Club presently has approximately 200 different cultivars circulating among club members. These varieties are seldom available at garden nurseries or in flower shops. New stock is perpetuated from cuttings taken each year by our members and supplemented by specialty nurseries such as Kings, and other Chrysanthemum clubs. Our annual public plant sale, held in April, is our primary fundraising activity.
Over the past 72 years ECA members have been active and recognized on a national and an international basis in our hobby. A past member and his wife (Ed and Maudie Hodgson) had cultivars named for them and listed in the British National Register. In March 2007, Jim McFarland had an article published in the American NCS magazine on the origin of the cultivar Lili Gallon. Others have attended or participated in the national shows in the UK and US and had the opportunity to meet the best of those growers and share those experiences with other ECA members.
Our Annual Chrysanthemum show, held the first weekend in November at Volunteer Park Conservatory in Seattle is a fanfare of fall blossoms. We invite you to come grow with us.
