May Masterclass, Fruit Trees and Bushes

MAY:  Fruit Trees & Bushes.  Chiefly but not exclusively Apples & Pears.  Actions to take before during and after flowering.  Pollination, Pests & Diseases. We gather together from 10.00am in the clubhouse/pavilion for tea/coffee and informal conversation before a 10.30 start.   A typical morning has 2 parts.  The advertised topic of the day, which will include practical demonstration and site walk as weather permits; and an open Q&A/discussion time.  The opening conversations will often determine the sequence at any given meeting. A  monthly actions guide will be available, and sharing of experience is encouraged. We expect both experienced and novice plotholders to be at these meetings, including regulars.  Presenters ate confident that there will be practical benefits for all who attend. The RHS Magazine ‘The Garden’ & ‘Which Gardening ‘ are used as references for best current practice.
