  • Description:

    This group visits the Botanic Garden every month throughout the year, sharing our interest, knowledge and pleasure as we observe the calendar changes. On each visit we will break up into smaller groups, led by monitors who are members of the group, and the programme will ensure that we visit all parts of the garden, known and lesser known, as well as the seasonal highlights. Before each walk a route map will be circulated by email, as is all other communication. Walk notes will be sent after the walk has taken place and will also include some notes on other subjects about of the garden. Note: Entry to the Garden is subject to the normal fee, so if you join this group it makes economic sense to become a Friend.

  • Format: Discussion

  • Organiser: Rose Desmond
  • I'm not an expert but a keen gardener and I enjoy visiting the botanic garden, drawing on the interests and experiences with other members of the group.
