Martin Young was a keen Lepidopterist long before becoming a plantsman. Combining both interests, he now specializes in plants which attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. All of his talks are supported his own computer and projector – all he needs is power and a suitable wall or screen. His talk on Echinacea also covers the health benefits as well as the horticultural aspects. Martin runs a small retail nursery in Weymouth, specializing in unusual Buddleja, Sedum, Lavender, Echinacea and Rudbeckia plus many cottage garden favourites. The emphasis is very much in British-grown hardy perennials and shrubs. The Nectar Plants nursery is only open at weekends (early March – end of Oct) and at other times by appointment for garden clubs & societies etc.
