Guest speaker David Hurrion. Innovative ideas to help drought proof your garden. 29 October 2024

David Hurrion returns to the nursery at a time when many gardeners are reviewing their garden and thinking of design changes that they’d like to make the following year.

While we can’t foresee what next summer will bring. Our climate continues to be unpredictable, with forecasts of hotter and drier summers and increasingly wet winters. Learning to conserve water and plant drought tolerant and drought resistant plants is essential if we are to support our  gardens and the insects and pollinators which rely on them.  

David will share his extensive practical experience, knowledge and innovative ideas to help you become a more water savvy gardener . 

A familiar face to those who watch BBC Gardeners World, David is a gardener, horticulturist, lecturer, journalist, writer, presenter and travel courier. He is also an RHS Tender Plants Committee member and Shows Judge.

2024 will see him launch his new book which is an essential guide to raised beds.
