Local Group

Asclepias speciosa

Our group covers three counties, where there are 22 National Plant Collections, everywhere from National Trust properties to back gardens.

We do not have regular meetings but publicise visits to local National Collections and other nearby events relevant to Plant Heritage's mission to protect garden plants for the future. We organise an annual meeting including a tour of a garden. We are keen to organise more local events so please get in touch if you would like to help, or have suggestions for places to visit. And remember that you can attend any Plant Heritage events across the UK.
