OUR NEXT MEETING: FRIDAY 21 FEBRUARY, 7.30pm 


Marion Stainton - The Spring Garden

Mackenzie Hall, Brockweir 


In this talk, Marion will look at some of what she considers to be the most iconic and beautiful spring plants.  She will also look at some of the main spring jobs.  It is not possible to look at everything in depth or every job, she has chosen those she thinks will have most impact on the success of the garden through the growing season.  These include such major concerns as: soil management, pest & disease control, propagation, pruning & lawn care.
