Travels in Search of Remarkable Plants

Mountains, deserts, wetlands and forests are diverse and challenging environments for wild plants. Recounting plant hunting in six continents, this talk presents extraordinary flora in their natural habitats.

Each talk comprises approximately 130 images and lasts approximately one hour. I bring my own high definition digital projector.
The fee per talk is £100 plus travel charged from Avebury at 45p/mile. All my presentations are also available by video link using Zoom, at the same fee with no travel cost.
To book please contact me.

What People Are Saying

"Thank you for a wonderful talk last evening – stunning photographs and a really interesting commentary. You were a great hit with all the members. I’ve already had a lot of feedback telling me how much they enjoyed the evening. It was one of our best and much appreciated."

Nicola Bennetts, Bitton Garden Society

"Many of our members have commented on your talk to our horticultural society & stated how much they enjoyed your presentation, knowledge & the quality of your slides."

Maureen Winkworth, Kennington Horticultural Society

“I so enjoyed your talk and I got lots of very positive comments from others afterward.  We were all impressed with the quality of your photos (and the lengths you and your wife have gone to to obtain them) - both landscapes and flowers - and your knowledge of what plants can live in such difficult conditions.  Seeing how they have adapted to their environment was so interesting  - it will give me a better understanding of the right environment for plants in my garden and which ones won't thrive and why.  A fascinating talk for our group.”
