Houseplants are a great way of bringing joy to you and colour to your home. They help lift the spirits – as well as helping to create a healthier environment but sometimes they don’t live up to our expectations or our financial investment….. Are your houseplants happy, healthy and a beautiful and colourful addition to your home? Or are they spindly, sickly and looking sad? In this talk garden writer Geoff Hodge will demonstrate how to make sure our indoor plants are a picture of health and an asset to your home. Geoff Hodge is a freelance garden writer and editor, writing for and working for various national gardening magazines and websites. Previously, he was the Online Editor for the Royal Horticultural Society, Gardening Editor and Editor of Garden News magazine and Technical Editor of Garden Answers magazine. He has written nine gardening books, including five for the RHS, with titles ranging from pruning and propagation to allotments and bulbs and a topic close to his heart – botany for gardeners. He is a regular guest on gardening programmes on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire and he appears on Q&A panels at flower shows across the country, gives lots of talks and demonstrations at garden centres, garden shows and for gardening clubs and answers hundreds of gardening questions every year for various organisations.
