The Rhodos, cost around $50 each, and thus far 4 of them have been donated by members. If you wish to support this planting programme with a donation, please contact wither Jad Suttor or myself. All donations gratefully received. The garden will be known as the Shirley & John Davidson Memorial garden in recognition of the work that the late John and Shirley did down in this garden
