Tired of buying plants only to find that there are gaps and it looks drab and boring? Or do you find yourself sighing when looking out of the kitchen window at your garden? This talk is for you and your group. As a trained horticulturist specialising in herbaceous perennials, Claire will introduce you to plants to ensure there is always something in flower or of interest year round. Packed with designer tips on how to get that "full garden" look, the talk will cover plants for sun, shade, clay, sand and everything in between!
Leave feeling inspired to try out new plants and get that "wow" factor, without costing the earth.

A trained RHS horticulturalist with a passion for sustainability, I bring gardening into the 21st century in an environmentally-friendly, ethical way. I specialise in bringing the latest on climate-change to life in a non-scary, accessible method. I cover what it means for how we garden and how we can all improve our gardens and green spaces, without costing the earth.
I can help you make links between the actions we take (or don't take), the biodiversity and health of our gardens, and the future of our planet. I cover the science of climate change; what does climate change mean for my garden; how to select sustainable plants; and how to garden in a sustainable way.
Engaging, inspiring and motivating, this is the antidote to panic buying plants at a garden centre when spring arrives, or feeling worried without knowing what to do when hosepipe bans hit.
