Speakers & Topic Summary:
SEX IN THE GARDEN: Flowers, fruit & foraging
Surely the most sensual time in the garden is when it is in full bloom, a riot of rich colours and textures, buzzing with bees, and the air filled with scents and holding the prospect of succulent fruits and seed heads in the seasons to come.
Sex in the Garden will bring together garden designers, researchers and horticulturists who will share their practical and inspirational approaches ranging from kitchen gardens, herbaceous borders and shade and woodland sites to open Mediterranean climes.

Our acclaimed speakers include Emma Desmier, Olivier Filippi, Noel Kingsbury, Michael Marriott, Henrik Sjöman, Jim Buckand & Sarah Wain and they will offer improved strategies in plantsmanship, review species selection for changing climate, biodiversity and maintenance regimes, and reveal how to make the most of scent and extend the season of flower and excitement based on the most reliable, spectacular and valued flowering and fruiting plants.
After this conference, sex in the garden may never be the same again!

Briefly dipped into the #SGDConference from @The_SGD through the wonders of line streaming. Caught some of @noelk57's lecture which was great.
