Speaker Marcus Dancer
Marcus will talk about all the different groups that make up the Clematis family and culminate the talk by looking at pruning in detail with a pruning demo. Plants for sale.
Marcus trained at Hillier Nurseries and has been growing and producing clematis plants for 20 years. He enjoys propagating and producing his own stock where possible and is always interested in growing something different and unusual but garden worthy.
