The Garden Club at Palm Coast has recognized Aubrey Martin of Whittle Place as the September 2025 Garden Selection of the Month.
Aubrey's yard is more than just a collection of beautiful plants – it's a living story of resilience, creativity, and new beginnings.
In July 2022, a devastating fire destroyed much of Aubrey's home and yard. Aubrey, with her mother's help, rebuilt the house and began again from the ground up.
Starting with cuttings, seeds and even small sticks, Aubrey brought her vision to life. The front yard now flourishes with duet roses, gardenias, and black desert roses. The back yard is equally lush, with banana trees, a coral tree, hibiscus, and a corner devoted to a variety of succulents.
Congratulations, Aubrey, and thank you for inspiring our community with your garden of grace.
The Garden Club meets monthly on the second Monday of the month September through May, at Club 51, 51 Old Kings Rd. N., Palm Coast. The plant sale is open to the public 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
