Course Overview
This is a one-day course at Lackham which is situated between Lacock and Chippenham. The course is designed for everyone but for those with a particular interest in roses and how to make more of them! All gardening equipment and materials will be provided – please do NOT bring gardening equipment with you, especially anything with a ‘sharp edge’.The day is designed to be relaxed and fun, and there are no tests although we will guide you towards ‘better practice'. There is some ‘heavy work’ but if this is a challenge you will of course not have to physically engage.
What will I learn?
On the day itself, you will learn about the different types of roses, how to prune rambling roses and the technique for propagation. There will be discussion on the development of a National Rambling Rose Collection at Lackham.
