Hello,
Welcome to my site promoting the Geranium (Pelargonium) talks that I offer
to undertake anywhere around the country.
I have been gardening since I was a teenager, following in my parents’
footsteps who were both keen gardeners. In my early gardening years I loved
growing vegetables but was soon swayed by the colour bug. I therefore started
growing seeds and grew plants on for summer displays.
When we moved to a larger house in Reading, Berkshire, with a larger garden
and greenhouse, I was able to take plant cultivation to the next level; this
coincided with catching the 'Pellie' bug in the early nineties when catching
sight of stunning Regal Pelargoniums whilst visiting Hampton Court flower
show. Since then the greenhouses grew and I decided to finish fulltime employment
in the summer of 2005 in order to run a small Pelargonium nursery under the
trading name 'Gosbrook Pelargoniums'.
In 2007 we made the decision to move to larger premises in Shrivenham, Oxfordshire.
Another area in that I have always had a keen interest is photography. The
two interests have become interlinked in recent years allowing me to portray
pelargoniums in talks, web and print for the catalogues I produce for the
Nursery. The advent of digital photography has no doubt allowed this to snowball.
I wish to share much of what I've learnt over the years with you and I am
happy to do this by visiting your area and giving talks about the cultivation
and exhibition of Pelargoniums along with quality photographs of the plants.
Please find further details by following the links and please feel free to
contact me to make arrangements.
