A stylised outline of Guernsey

Guernsey at heart

Here in Guernsey we have over 200 members who enjoy our annual programme of plant sales, lectures, garden visits and the well-established Nerine Festival.

We are keen to conserve plants that thrive or are linked with Guernsey and have several on-going projects.

key projects

Our projects include an expanding Nerine collection, which was designated a National Collection in 2017, Pelargoniums and the collection of Camellias planted at Government House.
We are also developing a Caparne Iris collection.
Help is always required and very welcome.

We send out a newsletter three times a year and have copies of the Plant Heritage Journal available to collect at our events.

We have several Nerine sarniensis 'Wolsey' for sale this year. It is a strong variety, which multiplies well and is a lovely colour. #guernsey #plantheritageguernsey #Nerinesarniensis

You can find lots of these Liriope muscari in Candie Gardens on the path adjacent to Candie Road. Once established they cope well with drought conditions and prefer shade. #guernsey #plantheritageguernsey #liriopemuscari
