Join Greg Lamont, expert Horticulturist and Growing Friends Volunteer, for the chance to learn how to propagate plant species from the living collection in the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney.

The morning will begin with a tour of the Garden to visit species that will feature in the propagation workshop, where, under Greg’s expert guidance, guests will learn the fundamentals of plant propagation from cuttings of a range of indoor plants, garden shrubs and succulents as well as an understanding of potting mixes and plant care.

The morning will include a delicious morning tea, with the opportunity to purchase plants from the Growing Friends Plant Sales. All event guests will receive 20% off plant sales on the day.

Greg has 30 years’ experience in all technical aspects of large scale cut flower production of more than 50 lines of cut flowers. This combined with an earlier research career in the horticulture of native plants gives Greg an extensive knowledge and exceptional skills in this area, which he now gives to the Growing Friends with his dedicated work at the Nursery over the last 8 years.

A delicious morning tea and refreshments will be provided.
