Talks

Over the last 10 years I have been asked by WI, Garden Clubs, British Royal Legion and others “Do you do talks?”, I now have a range of talks on the following subjects:

• Sustainability

What is sustainability and how does it affect the home Gardener? A talk on what we can do to support the environment without driving us mad.

We have created a very successful wildlife pond on the nursery, this talk is about how you can create a pond in your garden.

• Seasonal tips for late spring

What should you be doing now to keep the garden blooming through the rest of the year

• Propagation
