Hints and Tips for August 2024
From the Royal Horticultural Society August is usually one of the hottest months of the year, making watering essential. Try to use grey water wherever possible, especially as water butts may be running low if it has been a dry summer. August is traditionally holiday...
Plant Sales
On most Saturdays, members bring their spare plants to swap or sell.
Members who have spare plants, such as bedding or pot plants, offer them for sale and donate 10% of the takings to the Society. This sale is at the same time as the shed opening.
Spring Show
A spring show is held during March or April. Classes in the spring show are restricted to spring flowers, pot plants and flower arrangements. (See members’ handbook)
Annual Show
