Hardy Plant Society Middlesex Talk Notes
On Monday night I gave a talk to the Hardy Plant Society Middlesex.

Topiary Pictures From Previous Years

And recommended these secateurs when asked by The Telegraph to suggest the best pair for any gardener. Anyway, photos below…. Contact me for help with your topiary and pruning.
