Wild Flower Planting – Thursday 18th October 2018

22nd October 2018 By John Roper Leave a Comment

Jenny Hawkins, introduced to the team by Sue, has brought her knowledge of wild flowers with her.

Because they will be of attraction to visitors alongside planted perennials and specialist trees and shrubs, we are now listing wild flowers that are found on the site, and also wildflowers that have been cultivated and planted.

All the wildflower species planted are natural to Hertfordshire, although not necessarily within the Fernery. They are cultivated by Jenny at her home, and brought to the site in the form of ‘plugs’ ready for planting.
