'Blundell’s Roots to Chelsea Roses'
Speaker: Tim Clapp (TH 1986-91)
Topic: 'Blundell’s Roots to Chelsea Roses'
A journey through plants, people, and places: from my school days at Blundell’s to life as a qualified botanist, rose grower, Chelsea Flower Show exhibitor, and now as Head of Plant Purchasing for Kingfisher plc across Europe. I’ll share stories of roses, retail, and the role of plants in shaping gardens today — including the groundbreaking work of removing peat from compost and plants, a change that’s helping to secure a greener future for gardening.
