During October, two RCC members, Gaye Shenton and Stephen Utick, worked with a small team led by CIT Horticulture Lecturer Lesley Pattinson and 2CCC Garden Guru, Pauline Cairnduff OAM, in tagging and starting identification of the rhododendron collection. The team had previously been given approval by ACT Urban Services to undertake this task that will uncover the secrets of this wonderful collection. Already considerable progress has been made through ID advice given by members of the Australian Rhododendron Society.
Pauline spoke at our Club meeting on Monday 28th November. If you missed her wonderful presentation on the Fetherston Gardens in Weston, why not catch her on 2CCC – and also head to the Gardens in Weston (Heysen Street) for an amazing walk around.
