MARGARET Sheward, of the special plant unit in the nursery at Pershore College, brought her expertise and wide knowledge of plants to our March meeting. Wonderful slides accompanied practical advice for all those plants that you want to propagate. An insight into the unusual and exotic plants that the unit deals with made for an enjoyable evening.

The Roy Lancaster Lecture at Malvern College was very enjoyable, and the coach arrived on time after a longer journey than anticipated. The wine and cheese in the interval was very welcome and although the departure for home was later than scheduled due to Roy's enthusiasm, it was agreed that the evening had been well worth it. Our annual outing this year will be to the Van Kampan Gardens in Herefordshire, followed by a wine tasting at Broadfields Court, on Wednesday, July 23.
