    Have a look and fill it in if you can - if it helps to improve that site, it has to be a god thing. The info on there is good, but the site needs improving, IMHO!

    There's also a chance to mention a good gardening site - can anyone think of any? ;) :rolleyes: :D


    Oh, and if you do it, you can be entered into a prize draw for their encyclopaedia of perennials!

    I have just got their email Dendy but haven't had a chance to fill in the survey yet. Their site could definitely do with some improvement, it is a bit messy to use and the general search feature is not user-friendly.

    Can't think of any good gardening sites either.... :D

    Just filled it in. I hate tick boxes especially of the agree/disagree type.

    Do you a) agree b) strongly agree c) disagree with the above statement? :D

    I was going to join RHS, but when we went to one of their gardens there were no concessions (OAP etc) and the jobsworth on the "gate" wanted to charge me an extra �£5 to take my camera monopod in, even though the "regulations" only mentioned tripods and artists easels. That would have meant �£17 for us, not really justifiable on a pension, we told them to stuff it. They also lost a possible membership.
    We found another very pleasant garden a few miles away �£2 each.

    If I want to look for something on the RHS site, I google 'RHS weigela' or whatever. This usually brings up a direct reference.
    I also have most of the RHS reference books, much used.
