Our Previous Meeting - Container Planting

Below is the entry for our last meeting, I said "Given his work and experience I imagine that questions and answers could be quite a useful time." That is an understatement. James is a easy speaker to listen to, friendly, knowledgeable and with touches of humour.


With descriptions of everything from pots and containers, to growing media and a wide range of plants he really opened up the possibilities for container planting. It wasn't all talk either, he planted up a tub with a great balance of colours and then donated it to us for a raffle.

A great evening, thank you James.

We are fortunate to be able to welcome as our guest speaker James Foster-Pegg, from the Gold Club.

Definitely a meeting not to be missed.


Jame's subject will be: Container Planting
Tips and advice for the perfect balance of colour for summer


Given his work and experience I imagine that questions and answers could be quite a useful time.
