During the Covid 19 shutdown members of the group, starting with the chairman, have sent pictures to us for distribution to our members. We have accumulated a number of these so are publishing here some of the best. Hopefully we will have more to follow and will be able to see some of the seasonal changes in the gardens and glasshouses of the Somerset Group members.

The group is meeting as usual again with talks is as advertised.

Pictures below from various members of the Somerset Group which have been distributed to all as a way of keeping in contact.
