One subject our younger members are sure to love.
Carnivorous Plants
Peter Walker of wackswickedplants.co.uk has been obsessed with unusual and carnivorous plants and has worked in Horticulture most of his life, training in the UK and the Netherlands. Along with his wife Helleentje they visit shows, and clubs spreading their extensive knowledge and passion.
Join us and be amazed at the colours and diversity of these gems of the plant world.
Eastoft Village Hall Wednesday 12th April 7:30 pm
We thank SSE Keadby Windfarm for their continued support of our meetings!
For gardeners and the emphasis is on habitat, conditions required to grow carnivorous plants. Example is the ‘green fingers’ talk at the Eden Project.
The presentation that accompanies the talks has a lot of pictures, including some gruesome ones. Overall, the talk will explain where carnivorous plants grow, how they have developed, how to grow them yourself. It will attract insects.
We bring a good selection of plants, so people can see, touch, smell the actual plants.
The talk itself is approximately 45 minutes.
After this there is a question and answer session and opportunity to come and have a look at the plants.
