 GARDEN FEATURES, PLANT COMBINATIONS AND POTS FOR SUMMER

TALK BY GORDON MALT




 Gordon Malt, a retired tree surgeon and experienced gardener will be giving an illustrated talk. 

In his own half acre garden, near Shifnal, which he and his wife open for charity, Gordon manages to combine his love of growing vegetables with flowing flower borders, one streaming seamlessly into the other. He describes his own style as 'controlled relaxation'. As a finalist in the 2015 Daily Mail National Garden Competition Gordon is well placed to share his gardening and design know how. Hopefully we can all take away some interesting ideas for our own gardens.

 GARDENING WITH AND FOR WILDLIFE  

VICTORIA LOGUE



Our speaker for the evening is Victoria Logue. Victoria runs a nursery, Whitehall Farmhouse Plants. The subject for the evening is Gardening With and For Wildlife. Victoria has a keen interest in ecology in general and a special interest in encouraging beneficial insects in the garden. As a beekeeper herself, Victoria will be sharing her ideas for plants and horticultural techniques that help insects to help us.

Whitehall Farmhouse Plants, which was started by Victoria back in 2003, is a nursery situated high up in the Cotswolds where the plants are used to conditions which are likely to be much harsher than those in your garden.
