PLANT SALE

BONANZA SALE!
All gone by 10.15......
We sold nearly all our plants between 9 and 10.15 today. No one can recall such speedy sales, they were buying it up by the box full.

Our thanks to all who came along, and especially those who grew all the plants. It all looked (and was) very attractive.

We shall have to try and increase the volume of plants for 2014.

TESSA ALLEN


We were entertained and enlightened by the talk given by Tessa Allen on the subject of "Sex and Violence in the Garden" on Wednesday 1 May. Given all that goes on with the various pests, bugs and everything else it is a wonder anything grows at all unless it is strictly indigenous to the UK.

The Tessa "fan club"  (her students from the RHS course at Cooling's) came along to enjoy the evening as well. Our club also has a Tessa student Vice Chairman Karen (Left). The students are pictured with Tessa below.
