    The rather graphic discussions of female anatomy we have endured during the November political campaign reminds us of a 1977 Garden Club of the Back Bay program when Dr. John Twaddle addressed the members on the subject of mammograms. Dr. Twaddle’s wife Anne was a Club member and presumably arranged for her husband to lecture on the subject, which was something of a departure from the usual floral and environmental agenda.  We can only imagine whether there were slides or hands-on demonstrations.  This season we examine The Prehistoric Garden and thus far are very pleased with our speakers and attendance numbers.  Below is a right breast arrangement by Camila Sitarama Carlow, part of her series Eye Heart Spleen.
