About the course
Have you been thinking about how to garden in a more water efficient way? Did you know that East Anglia’s low rainfall and increasingly mild winters give us conditions suited to growing many plants from the Mediterranean and similar climates from around the world? Join our Head of Horticulture Sally Petitt to discover how it is possible to create a garden that requires little to no watering. On this course you will get an opportunity to learn more about our dry garden and the plants within it, as well as picking up tips for your own garden at home.
