South Solihull u3a Gardening Group
INTRODUCTION
You don't have to have a grand or great garden or even green fingers to join us. Our interests lie in learning about gardens, plants and how to look after them. We visit gardens which are not always open to the public.

RECENT ACTIVITIES
WEDNESDAY 6th MARCH 2024
Nineteen members went on our first garden visit of 2024 to ASHWOOD GARDEN and NURSERY, Kingswinford.
The weather was kind to us, with a few sunny spells to keep out the cold.
We had a guided tour of the garden, and after lunch we had a talk in their hellebore growing tunnel. Both guides were incredibly knowledgeable, and answered the many queries that we threw at them.
Members took the opportunity to purchase unusual specimens of hellebores from the propagation tunnel.
