June Meeting- Speaker -Andy Hardman

Andy- hiding from the limelight

-

detailed discussions.

- Andy's talk this month proved both interesting & enlightening.

In the 1st part of his talk he covered his experiences and expertise in the importance of areas such as;

• potting media -particularly water, air, nutrients and particle size (I liked the OXO cube -Acadama analogy!!)
• the aesthetic variations available -pot size, pot colour, leaf colour, flower size.........etc ( think there were 9 in total!!!)
  

In the 2nd half Andy brought out a large selection of his own accents and discussed where he had acquired the plants from, his growing tips for the species and the choice of accent with tree.

All in all this was an enjoyable night that for me, provided a much needed knowledge boost.
