We are a group of people who love plants. Most of us just potter about in the garden, planting and tending hanging baskets and garden tubs. We enjoy visiting Garden Centres/ Nurseries, the occasional garden themed quiz, swapping plants and ideas and passing on tips and knowledge on 'what we have learnt about gardening' through experience.
We are always ready to Welcome New Members male or female.(new members, bring new ideas) If you are interested in being part of our group, we'd love to have your company.
