I am interested to read some opinions on the merits of RHS membership.

http://www.rhs.org.uk

Am particulary interested in the usefulness of their enquiry service.

Looking forward to reading some opinions.

I have found their enquiry service to be entirely trustworthy, but it is
very slow. I don't know if it is because the facility is overwhelmed, or
whether whoever runs it does not attend to his/her email regularly.

I suspect they are busy, I have always had an acknowledgement within 24
hours, and a result within about 4 weeks.
They are always busier after major shows, Chelsea, Hampton Court(which is on
now) Tatton Park, Etc

Think these three sites will lighten your day.

I have only used their advice service and found it wanting, I asked about
Leek Moth and at the time they didn't seem to realise it was no longer
restricted to a few South Coast places and had spread as far as Staines. Had
no idea on chemicals to use etc.
They now have a fact sheet on it.
