SUMMARY:Hardy Plant Society\, Hampshire Group – Going Higher and Higher – Speaker Jack Willgoss from Wildegoose Nursery
DESCRIPTION:Jack and Laura started the nursery as specialist growers of hardy perennial violas\, but their passion for plants has always extended beyond this to encompass a wide range of flowering perennials and grasses. They offer an ever expanding plant list of exciting new perennial introductions and longstanding favourites. The garden at Wildegoose Nursery showcases these wonderful plants in exuberantly planted borders. The garden also functions as stock beds from which they propagate. It is also where they continually test the garden worthiness of the plants they sell. In fact 95% of all their stock is propagated on site from seed\, cuttings and divisions. Talking of which\, they plan to bring along plants to sell. \nThe subject is about using tall perennials to create an immersive atmosphere. They consider using some of the favourite border giants and look at a different take on how to use them.
