The CHS committee welcome suggestions for future venues. Details of gardens are in the spring issue of Spadework.

Judith Bray, on a 2015 CHS day trip to Glebe House, was struck by Eryngium elegans (Miss Willmott’s ghost). ‘A memorable name and evidently a memorable person too. A 19th century gardener, she secretly scattered seeds of this plant in other people’s gardens.’

Can anyone fill this empty pot with a special plant from a CHS day-trip? Members are  sometimes given a cutting or seeds, there’s often a table of plants for sale and we visit nurseries: resulting in a leafy, gaudy and possibly prickly bus back to Aberystwyth.
