Description

The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is the UK's leading gardening charity dedicated to advancing horticulture and promoting gardening. The goal of the Society is to help people share a passion for plants, to encourage excellence in horticulture and inspire all who have an interest in gardening. Its charitable purpose is 'The encouragement and improvement of the science, art and practice of horticulture in all its branches'. The RHS demonstrates a commitment to gardeners and gardening though inspirational flower shows and events, gardens, advice, research, learning and education and a role in community horticulture. As part of the advisory and research role, data on the distribution and spread of some invasive non-native insect pests are gathered. The native fauna and flora in the four RHS gardens is also recorded.
