Sponsor the National Plant Collections - follow Cornus

Follow Cornus

RHS Garden Rosemoor in North Devon holds a National Plant Collection of Cornus (excl. C. florida).

These shrubs or small trees, known as dogwoods, can be grown for their winter stem colour or their showy coloured bracts from early spring to summer. 

Jon Webster, curator at RHS Garden Rosemoor is looking forward to keeping you up to date with developments in the collection.

What you will receive

Your sponsorship will give you a welcome pack including a personalised certificate and an introduction to your chosen National Plant Collection and the Collection holder who is caring for it, along with their growing tips. 

You will also receive regular newsletters about Plant Heritage's conservation work, including the Journal magazine twice a year, and a copy of the National Plant Collections Directory with information about all the Collections across the UK and opportunities to visit them.

Sponsorship

Your sponsorship will help us protect the diversity of our rich garden flora, so we can:

  • Work with new collection holders to save plant groups missing from the National Plant Collection scheme.
  • Work with gardeners to establish more dispersed National Plant Collections.
  • Train more volunteers to help collection holders across the country.
  • Create a comprehensive resource about the incredible plants in our National Collections.
