Monthly Meeting – Around the World in 80 Plants
Thu 25 July 2024 @ 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm
£2
- Our speaker in July is Jaime Blake, who has been the joint head gardener at Bressingham Gardens for many years. Jaime’s presentation will be a fascinating tour of 80 plants from around the world that are flourishing in the 17 acre Bressingham Gardens. Jaime will talk about a wide range of plants we can grow in this country and where they originate in the world, with anecdotes and his experience of growing them at Bressingham. Jaime will describe his choice of plants with reference to a world map, picking plants from countries ranging from the UK, France, Western Europe, Nepal, India and even further afield in Asia and China. So come along to hear this fascinating tour of the world of plants from far afield that can be grown in our own gardens in the UK.
