Lucy’s aim for the group is to teach everyone to be able to identify wild flowers in the field. So the group studies specimen plants with the aid of a botanical hand lens, which Lucy supplies (price £10). Each group member is provided with a copy on loan of the Concise British Flora by Rev. W. Keble Martin.
The group will also cover plant function; herbal medicine; the folklore of native plants; plant evolution; and the history of plant collecting.
Absolutely NO experience of anything necessary. It is very much a “hands on” group with activities ranging from the trivial to the testing. And chatting …
