Our members plus some new faces came together at the Amora Hotel in Richmond on Friday the 17th for our last event of 2023.
We were treated to a meal followed by an interesting presentation from Caroline Davies, former President of the global Mediterranean Garden Society.
Caroline took us through the many hardy plants which do well in the mediterranean region, and which are also suited to our Melbourne gardens – euphorbias, Cercis siliquastrum, olives, cyclamen, and many small bulb species, and of course cacti and succulents. Guests keenly participated in the Q&A session afterwards and some got to take home lucky prizes of potted lavender.
We thank Caroline for generously giving her time and expertise to our group.
Thanks also go to our event sponsors The Diggers Club and Natural Garden Scapes.
