A radical rethink of priorities was suggested and members were urged to have the courage to start again. Using a visual presentation, Mr. Featherstone showed how he had transformed his garden from a standard lawn surrounded by flower beds to an interesting low maintenance area of raised beds, incorporating a variety of textures. Many of the mature plants were transferred and proved to be most content in their new homes.<\/p>\n<p>The Soroptimist members were given a great deal of advice on how to make gardening easier so that more time could be spent enjoying the benefits of their efforts. They were given tips on growing herbs, fruit and vegetables amongst the flowers.<\/p>\n<p>An increased demand for container grown apricot trees should be anticipated by local nurseries!<\/p>\n<p>Juliet Novis thanked Mr. Featherstone for sharing his expertise with the group in such an enjoyable way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cIs your garden a pain or a pleasure?\u201d was the question asked by Tony Featherstone&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":193,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-latest-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How does your garden grow? | News | Blog | Events | SI Beverley and District<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Beverley and District : Blog &amp; News : How does your garden grow? : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Beverley and District .
