Questionnaire sent to participants before meeting.
In order to get as much out of each other’s experience as possible, I would like to gather some information on temperatures maintained in the glasshouses in your various gardens, for collation and to stimulate discussion at the meeting. Could you possibly fill in what you can on the form below and email it to me by 16 March or thereabouts?
Many thanks.
Jessica Gould
