Cally Gardens - the future

[Maggi Young]

Kevin Hughes, owner of Cally Gardens, talks about his desire to clear the woods of this invasive species, working with the Fleet Valley Volunteers.

From experience of Rhododendron clearance at the local site and talking to those carrying out the work it is necessary to paint the cut branches and stumps as soon as they are cleared with Glyphosate. This may be needed for three years after clearing. If the stumps are left to re-grow, spraying will be needed for three years.

Cally Event  3rd March 2019

Join Kevin Hughes on a one off tour of the amazing and exotic plant collection at Cally Gardens. Kevin, who has only been the custodian of Cally since May 2018, says that the tour will also feature the changes that he has made already at Cally Gardens. The tour which will last around 1 hour will look at the many challenges ahead for the Cally team, as they work to restore and renew this wonderful gem of the botanical world.
 Kevin will also be introducing many of the new  hardy plants and shrubs that he has introduced to the Cally collection, many being the first  to be planted in Scotland and some the first introduction to the United Kingdom.

The Tour commences at 2pm and is free to anyone who has purchased admission to the garden or that is a Season Ticket Holder.

Admission to the Gardens is £5 for adults and free for under 16's.

Complimentary refreshments will be served at the end of the tour.

Tee Hee!  I must confess, Shelagh, that that hard work in typing the  list  was  not  of  my  doing, I simply  copied  and  pasted  it  from the  Cally  Gardens email I received!

Clever girl (if that's not offensive). Or should I say wonderful lady.
