Conferences

Each year PlantNetwork holds at least two conferences, one in Spring the other in Autumn. These comprise 2 days of invited talks, during which we usually take the opportunity to visit plant collections in the immediate location of the meeting. The themes of these meetings cover subjects which the board feels are of importance in furthering the strategic plan of PlantNetwork.
