Weird weather
We seem to be having a spate of weather that advances and retreats!
One moment it appears to threaten to rain and create all kinds of mayhem and the next it fades away, becomes rather warmer but remains overcast. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

By the by I had a meeting yesterday, and the closure of the Duchy nursery is confirmed, the cafe is staying open for now and there will be some bought in stock but most of the staff are to be laid off, they will no longer propagate, pot on or grow plants, all the trees in the adjacent fields have now been sold off and nothing is known about what will happen to that land. all very depressing. -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |

Jenny - in Bristol So am I, especially the job losses. I think it's a huge shame. It will be a café with some plants for sale, perhaps. In other words, a garden centre. What a pity. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon Suspicion is that it will not remain even a garden centre for long and it will be all built on. -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |

I know the Duchy has a duty to maximise its assets/profits but.... The PoW tried very hard to keep that nursery going but obviously, it wasn't to be. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |
