Week 2 has been a bit hit and miss. Everything was fine on Tuesday, but on Friday, my car sulked and refused to start, so we cancelled the session. Sorry, folks.
So, here's what we talked about on Tuesday, and will be talking about on Friday.
Our Plants of the Week this term will be long-flowering plants, plants that give us a lot of petal power over a long period.
Judy introduced us to Veltheimia, a bulb growing as a house or conservatory plant in this country, with lovely waved and crimped leaves, and a red hot poker-type flower. Veltheimia is from South Africa, and flowers at this time of the year, Christmas/January. Mine have been kept cooler and are just now starting to open. They'll be in flower for a month or more.
Here are the images:

Our main topic was Garden Design, and we had a chat about issues facing members. Here's the handout:

Next week, we'll be looking at the Garden in February
