Share our passion for saving garden plants

Plant Heritage Members Day weekend and annual Plant Exchange organised by our Dumfries & Galloway Group.

A light-hearted quiz for plant lovers.   

As Belsay Hall has had to postpone the proposed talk, we've decided that Faith Williams and / or Roz Cooper will do short talks on interesting topics, we'll have a break for tea and Christmassy nibbles, then a GQT-style session of questions, answers and plant-based chat.  We're sure it will be a very enjoyable and cheerful session - please come along!
