This is a brand-new talk developed especially for Mayfield Horticultural Society.
One of our regular and most popular speakers for the Society, Ed has spent the past 25 years developing a beautiful woodland garden at the Tidebrook estate where he is head gardener.
As you will already know, there’s nothing quite like a walk in the woods to lift up the soul, especially if those woods are choc-full of unusual plants, trees and shrubs to pause and admire.
Get some inspiration for that shady corner in the garden as we learn about his trials and triumphs along the way. No doubt there will be some stunning photographs alongside lively discussion to illustrate the talk.
Get there early as we’re expecting a sell-out…
