Graham Gough was in partnership with Elizabeth Strangman at Washfield Nursery for several years. At Marchants Hardy Plants in East Sussex he grows unusual herbaceous perennials and choice grasses in a nursery with views of the South Downs. On September 15 Sarah Raven wrote about Marchants Hardy Plants in The Telegraph; the first of ten articles on the most inspirational nurseries in the U.K. Click here to read the article.
Since Graham last spoke to VHPG in 2005 several members have had the great pleasure of visiting Marchants and being warmly greeted by Graham and his wife Lucy Goffin. It will be a delight to welcome him once again.

Well, your post just helped me answer a question in the office, "Daniel, do you know if there is a VHPG speaker tonight?" "No... wait, yes!"

Well, if I helped someone get to what was a very pleasant presentation, so much the better!
