The 21st century poses new horticultural and societal challenges for Britain’s population and our planet. By building understanding and encouraging engagement with all aspects of horticultural science and garden heritage, we can develop a nation of gardeners equipped and motivated to deal with the challenges of our changing world.
RHS Director of Science Professor Alistair Griffiths believes the strategy will see a step change in the way cultivated plants are protected, promoted and perceived.
'The RHS is determined to ensure that as the population increases and resources become more limited, gardeners will have the knowledge, expertise and support they will need to not just survive, but thrive in a changing world.'
