About this Event
Drop into the RHS Lindley Library for our spring series of Lindley Live!
Discover the story of one of horticulture's pioneering women: Sarah Backhouse. Plus, find out how you can get involved with the RHS Daffodil Diaries, as we aim to map the UK’s daffodils and locate three rare varieties.
Our informal show and tells offer a 15 minute introduction to the treasures of our Library collection to liven up your lunch break. No need to book, just drop in. RHS membership not required.
