We have had a busy few days! We must firstly thank David Millward and his team of helpers for a great SRGC Show at Edinburgh on Saturday, a successful and enjoyable event. Then we had been invited back to the enthusiastic Glasgow Group of the SRGC where we gave a talk on Monday afternoon about the construction of the Crevice Garden at the Nursery. Then, on the way home today we had a very enjoyable visit to Wemyss Castle Gardens to see the drifts of Erythronium revolutum in the woodland and lots more plants in the walled garden. We will then be back up to Perth for the SRGC Show on Saturday which we are looking forward to.
