    Special Event

Two of our Plant Societies, Fern and Carnivorous, are joining us at RHS Garden Wisley for displays of tender, garden and aquatic ferns and fascinating carnivorous plants from the UK and around the world. There is also the opportunity to purchase a range of unusual plants from specialist nurseries. Talks on growing both ferns and carnivorous plants, as well as help and advice. Children can also come and find out about the history of ferns, adventure through the prehistoric tunnel and make their own clay prints to take away.
