2025


Wednesday, 16 April: Paul Cumbleton’s garden The Maples, Watts Quarry Lane, Somerton, Somerset, TA11 7JD.


An amazing collection of bulbs and alpines, both in greenhouses and raised beds.



Thursday, 11th September: James Hitchmough’s garden Clayhanger House, Wadeford, Chard, Somerset, TA20 3BJ.


This is still a garden in the making as James has only been there for just over 2 years. He is hoping to have some Nerine bowdenii var wellsii in flower at that time.



Saturday October 18th : Nerine Day: Exbury Gardens, Southampton SO45 1AZ



Saturday 1st November: AGM 2025 Holton Village Hall, near Oxford.







 

 This is definitely one of the most complicated flowers I've painted but the flowers are so beautiful it's worth persevering.
