Another successful annual plant sale

By Victoria Plum

The Reepham & District Gardening Club’s annual plant sale in Reepham on Saturday 13 May was a huge success (regularly the second Saturday in May every year), raising more than £400. The Committee thanks all those who donated and bought plants.

The money raised goes towards the running of the club and covering the costs of the excellent speakers the club attracts for its monthly meetings, which non-members are always welcome to attend.

So, thinking ahead in the long term, as all gardeners must, perhaps you could pot up any “extras”, self-sown seedlings or surplus stuff ready for next year’s sale? Well-grown and settled plants will always make a better price than those crammed into a pot the night before the sale.

This year’s day trip is to Knebworth House and Jordan’s Mill on Thursday 13 July. Please speak to Celia Else at the next meeting on Tuesday 20 June (7.45 pm) to book, or check the website for details as there are a few seats available.
