Essex

We are a friendly welcoming group and if you have an interest in alpine plants, whether you like to see them in the wild or grow them at home in the garden or greenhouse, this is the group for you. We have plant sales, a monthly competition, raffle and library. We have a speaker each month who talks and shows slides on various alpine plants. The evening is rounded off with the raffle and a cup of tea/coffee.
