Mrs. Manda Ferris, 85 years old, stands beside the 10 foot geranium growing beside her home at 7432 So. "G" St. Mrs. Ferris, who celebrated her 85th birthday October 9, 1934, planted the geranium from a six inch slip one and a half years ago. In a protected location beside her home, the geranium continued growing and even bloomed bright red flowers throughout the winter. Mrs. Ferris was born in Pennsylvania and came to Tacoma 20 years ago. She lives with her daughter Audrey. (T. Times 10/10/1934, pg. 1)
