November 14th 7.30 pm – The Wild Gardener Julie VerityWilliam Robertson got his name as the ‘Wild Gardener’ after the title of one ofhis books. He is also often called the ‘father of the English Flower Garden’ for the same reason. He was a contemporary and friend of Gertrude Jekyll, and was probably the most influential horticulturalist in Englandduring his lifetime. But, unlike Gertrude Jekyll, most of us have never heard of him – why? During the last half of his life, he created thegarden at Gravetye Manor in Sussex, described by some as the best garden in England. This talk will explore his life and work, and will try to resolve why he remains a mystery to most of us.You don’t need to be a member to come along, simply pay £3 on the door of £10 for annual membership. www.froylegardeningclub.co.uk
