"Deer Hunters Widows Weekend" returns to the Oglebay Palm Room in Wheeling. On Nov. 22-25 all "widows" of hunting season are invited to the Palm Room to "hunt" for the perfect Christmas gift.

"Customers can even save a few bucks by selecting a discount coupon out of the decorative deer," Marilyn Archer, garden and greenhouse manager, said in a news release.

The Palm Room is full of ornaments for the holidays, unique plants, live mixed green wreaths, gardening gifts, solar and electric lights, plus 21 varieties of poinsettias. Traditional red, white and pink, plus Winter Rose and novelty glitter poinsettias, are available this year.

"The plants make festive gifts dressed up with decorative pot covers and bows," added Archer.

The Palm Room is open on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 22, from 1-9 p.m.; Nov. 23-24 from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and on Nov. 25 from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
