| Description | Activities of the French Broad River Garden Club are recorded in the minutes of the Club as well as in the brief clippings files and letters of this early Asheville garden club. Of particular interest are the glass-plate negatives of wild-flowers of the region taken by the noted early Japanese photographer, George Masa. Prints of the glass-plate negatives accompany the donation and are documented with both the Latin and the common name of the plants. |
