Courses at Old Lands
Sarah Raven at Old Lands
Grow your own cut flowers 4th April 2019
This is Sarah’s classic course for those who have been thinking about creating an intensive cutting patch, or just growing a few flowers for the house.
Magnificent Pots 5th April 2019
Pots are everywhere at Perch Hill. Sarah is obsessed with them and how to get them looking better and better every year and yet not take over our lives. Based on trialling hundreds of different container plants over the last few years, Sarah will give you lots of design ideas, practical advice and inspiration on colourful and beautiful container combinations.
