The Garden Club of South Carolina's endowed Hessie Morrah Horticulture Scholarship awards $2,000 to a South Carolina resident and U.S. citizen who is either a graduating high school senior or an enrolled undergraduate or graduate student. It's meant to encourage the study of agriculture, agronomy, botany, floriculture, landscape architecture, plant pathology, historic preservation, or a related major, and calls for a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0. Complete applications — including an essay, an activities list, three letters of recommendation, and an official transcript — are due to the GCSC Scholarship Chairman by the February 1 postmark deadline.
