The Garden Club at Palm Coast teamed up with the city to plant a new bald cypress tree on Jan. 19 in honor of Florida Arbor Day and the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs's 100th anniversary. 

Over 150 garden clubs across the state planted trees at 11 a.m. in honor of the Federation's anniversary, club President Denise Garcia said. Because of the projected overcast weather, the city of Palm Coast and the Garden Club planted its tree a few days early and celebrated the holiday and anniversary by spreading mulch around the base of the new tree instead.

The club also handed out free wax myrtle seedlings to attendees in celebration of Arbor Day.
