On the gravel at the entrance to Church Farm in Creamery Lane is a number of plants, herbaceous plants, wild flowers and shrubs, in need of a home. Please help yourself.
Everything must go, especially as my goddaughter returns to get her car on Sunday and the plants are currently blocking it in. Also there are lots of plastic plant pots in the large builders merchant back if they are any use to anyone.
Knock on the door if you want to know what the plants are.

Last week, members and guests enjoyed a day out at RHS Bridgewater. John Lord’s photos capture some of the scenes, including TV’s Carol Klein caught on camera!

Whilst we admire the beauty of the gardens on display during Open Gardens we don’t perhaps fully appreciate the effort and dedication that goes into the quest for perfection. We are indebted to David G who managed to catch this behind the scenes shot of one of our more athletic gardeners in his effort to get everything just in the correct position.

Yesterday’s Open Gardens was a triumph. Huge thanks to the hard working team behind the event and to the whole village both for supporting it in different ways and for welcoming so many visitors, who frequently said how lucky we are to live in such a wonderful place. Early estimates suggest several thousand pounds were raised which is a fantastic achievement and John Lord’s amazing photos are a lasting memory of a great day.
Thank you from PDHS

PDHS would love your spare plants to sell at Open Gardens on 26th June. Please drop them off at the Memorial Hall either Saturday evening or Sunday morning. It is a great help if they are labelled and of course they should be grown in peat-free compost.
Meanwhile plants can still be bought outside Rookery House.
Many thanks
Sue and Jill

Thank you for those who made a donation in return for apples from our orchard last year. We raied £40 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
All being well, apples will be available again this year with donations gratefully accepted for the same charity. Don’t forget your carrier bag!

Five free Asparagus Crowns
Thompson & Morgan sent me five crowns of Asparagus Vittorio. Unfortunately I was expecting an unusual Buddleja, but not one quite this unusual. When I contacted them the response was to hang onto what was sent and they would send a replacement shrub. As a shrubbery is not the best place to plant asparagus, if anyone would like the five crowns please contact me.

Just a reminder that as a Society we want to promote going peat free. As highlighted in past blog posts aswell as with samples of peat free potting compost at our last talk, we gardeners need to do our bit to protect sensitive peat landscapes and safeguard these repositories of carbon dioxide.

The RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch takes place at the end of this month. Let’s make this an occasion to do a Big Parwich Garden Birdwatch. Anyone wanting to take part please also send in your sightings to us and we’ll publish the results. Anyone who fancies something different than staring into your garden how about spending an hour sitting in the Pump Hill Garden- it would be interesting to record what birds are making use of the area.
