Hartside are gearing up for the new Show Season .... their first SRGC event for 2020 will be at the Victoria Hall Dunblane on
22nd February for the SRGC Early Bulb Day .....
note from Neil Huntley .... Hi everyone, our earlier tweet should of course have said the first outings we are making to @ScottishRockGC event at Dunblane and the @Alpinegardensoc Show at Pershore are February 22nd - not March! Hopefully see some familiar faces.
SRGC Early Bulb Day will be held in Dunblane, Perthshire, at the Victoria Hall, on Saturday 22nd February 2020
David Millward will talk at the event. He will give two talks based on his many travels in Turkey and Greece, in spring, summer and autumn, that will take us deep into the wild areas where the spring bulbs flourish. David is the Edinburgh Show Secretary and chairman of the SRGC Show Secretaries committee. He has won several Forrest Medal, including a couple for his magnificent pan of Narcissus obesus Lee Martin Form. David, a geologist, co-authored the book, 'Alpine Plants: Ecology for Gardeners' with John Good.
As usual at the early bulb day there will be a number of nurseries selling a wide range of plants. We hope that members will support us by bringing many plants for the 50:50 plant sale, whose sales will help to meet the costs of the event. Further information will be in the 2020 Show Schedule.
