Hi all,

I'm thinking of visiting the Hatfield Festival of Gardening; however the
Hatfield House website is utter pants - It doesn't say how many exhibitors
will be attending let alone provide a list. Has anyone been in the past
who
could give me an idea of the type and quality of exhibitors? I'm only
interested in plants and would really like to know if specialist perennial
nurseries such as Crug Plants, Madrona etc attend. I don't want to fork
out
if I can't carry off at least one of the uncommon plants I'm after.

I'm surpristed the Festival of Gardening doesn't have its own website. I
went last year and was quite impressed overall. There were quite a few
specialist Nurseries but I cannot recall any names.

It was also good to have the opportunity to visit parts of the garden that
are not normally open to the public.

I'm thinking about going again on the Sunday.

If you are interested in unusual plants, the Chelsea Physic Garden is having
a Plant Fair on Sunday June 22nd.

HTH
