NCCPG: The National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens, Worcestershire Group, celebrated with an American supper and two mini slide shows for their Christmas party.. Members were transported to Switzerland, Greece, the Falklands, and France to see gardens and plants in all their glory and were given an insight into some of the hellebores that can be grown in the UK.
The group's bulb day is on March 19. All are welcome but it is by ticket only and they can be obtained from Hugh Blundstone on 01386 830909. The day will encompass two lectures and a visit to Spetchley Park for a conducted tour of the famous daffodils.
A rare opportunity to hear John Grimshaw occurs on January 11. John is the gardens advisor at Colesbourne Park, well known for its marvellous collection of snowdrops. He will be talking about snowdrops and other spring bulbs.
Visitors are always welcome at the NCCPG and the monthly meetings are held in the Frank Parkinson Centre at Pershore College at 7.30pm.
