The Amazing Tradescants and their Gardens is Christine Jarvis’s talk topic at the Long Ditton Gardening Club’s monthly meeting.

She’ll explore the remarkable lives of 17th Century father-and-son plant-hunting and gardening team John and John Tradescant.

The club meets at Long Ditton village hall, opposite Long Ditton rec, on the 3rd Wednesday of the month, although in the summer months talks are replaced by organised outings.

Refreshments provided. New members welcome, £15 a year.
