pelargoniums and geraniums - A website for Pelargonium and Geranium Information and Links


	My apologies to all for the lack of up-to-date information on this site during recent years. Personal and family misfortune has reduced my free time, health and finances. The plants have had the priority over the computer, which has been seriously neglected. I am aware of how out-of-date the information had become and so I decided to take the site down until I have time to revise the content. I hope this will be soon. One very important event is however detailed below. Best wishes to all.

Good News for the UK!
For the last 30 years there have been two national UK societies for all people interested in the wide range of Pelargonium or Geranium plants - the "British and European Geranium Society" and the "British Pelargonium and Geranium Society". As from 1st January 2009 they are merging to form one new society called the Pelargonium and Geranium Society. An "Acting Management Committee" drawn from both societies is doing all that is necessary up until the first elections at the inaugural and General Meeting in 14th March 2009.

The first National Show of the new society will be on Saturday, 20th June 2009, at the Marston F.C. Stadium, Leicester Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire, from 1pm to 4.45pm. Schedules will automatically be sent to all members who join the new society, with a February mail-out. If you require any additional information, please contact the Acting Secretary, David Steele, 8 Ingswell Avenue, Notton, WAKEFIELD, WF4 2NG.

Membership subscriptions for the PGS (or PAGS) are due on 1st January 2009 and are: £10 single (UK); £12 joint (at the same address) (UK); £5 Junior (under 16); £150 Life membership (UK); £15 Affiliated Society (UK); £15 Individual / Affiliated Society subscription in Europe; £20 Individual / Affiliated Society subscription in Outside Europe. Please contact the Acting Membership Secretary, Mrs Gwen Dodge, 'Lyneham', Hullbrook Lane, Shamley Green, GUILDFORD, GU5 0UQ, or print out the membership form on the next page.

The pelargoniums and geraniums website was originally created and maintained by David Barrett to increase internet information and knowledge of pelargoniums and geraniums. Previously this included Specialist Societies and clubs, websites and shows with some photographs. All information is welcome, as are comments on any future developments you would like to see. Please email it to me. Please report broken links, faults or errors here.
