Nerines


We now understand that the RHS Malvern Autumn Show 2020 has been cancelled.


The Society had planned to exhibit at the show but we will now look forward to 2021 and hope to exhibit again at next year's show.


Saturday October 10th Five Arrows Gallery Exbury - Booking Required.

This visit is for members ONLY and social distancing measures will be in place. We will stagger the start time so only small numbers of people go into the Five Arrows Gallery and Glasshouses at any one time. Please ensure you let the society  know you want to visit. Times will be allocated to people when we have a better idea of numbers. Please let us know when booking how early you can realistically arrive. We may need to start the slots from 10am and will try to give later slots to those who need the travelling time. Exbury gardens are open for you to visit after seeing the nerines. Mr Eddy's restaurant and the tearoom are open for food, but if you prefer you are welcome to bring a picnic.


Please book by email to nerinesociety@gmail.com



Saturday October 17th Cotswold Garden Flowers, Badsey, Evesham WR11 7EZ 


Ed Brown has taken on the National Collection of Nerine sarniensis from Steve Eyre.

Rather than a start time of 2pm this is now an Open Day. Come when it suits you during the day but please let the society know if you are planning to come so you can be informed of any changes.
