The Next Meeting:

 

 

In August we’re taking a short Summe break. So our next meeting will be on Saturday 20th September. Note this is the THIRD Saturday to avoid a clash with the AGS Loughborough show. Our speaker will be Kit Strange, a regular speaker for our Group. Kit was formerly a member of the Alpine Team at RBG Kew, where she had responsibility for the extensive bulb collection. She has been on many plant hunting trips across the world, to photograph bulbs in the wild and collect specimens. In this new talk “A Cavalcade of Bulbs” she will be taking us across Europe and Asia and sharing some of her lovely photographs with us.

 

So come along to the Elgar Room at the Weatherley Centre from on Saturday 20th September from 2.00pm. The talk will start at 2’30 pm.

 

Entry is £2 for members of the Group, and £5 for visitors
