Hosta and Hemerocallis Society AGM 2024

Yesterday I attended the British Hosta and Hemerocallis Society AGM held at Broadward Hall Gardens, Shropshire set in beautiful countryside. Where our hosts Caro and Anthony were most gracious and allowed us to spend time in their walled garden containing The National Collection of
Historic English-bred Hemerocallis.
Caro gave us a fascinating presentation about the history and efforts they have undertaken to develop and preserve their wall garden and their National Collection.
The AGM was held, won’t go into the detail here, the minutes will be available to society members once they have been written.
Finally we had cake, tea and coffee to set us up in preparation of the plant auction. There was a lovely collection provided by members and some unusual varieties available. I of course purchased 7 Hostas, which included an Original Stock June provided by June Colley.
