On Wednesday 8th June the Clacton on sea branch visited Lullingstone Castle Kent which is home to Tom Hart Dyke's World Garden of plants. Tom was kidnapped in the Panamanian Jungle on a plant hunting expedition. Tom showed us arround the gardens and the Cactus and Succulent houses. We had a great day and its well worth a visited. Tom has been to Clacton and given us a talk and is booked to come again next year.
