Royal Horticultural Society (RHS)
Description
The Royal Horticultural Society is the UK’s leading gardening charity. It aims to enrich everyone’s life through plants, and make the UK a greener and more beautiful place. The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) was founded on 7 March 1804 as The Horticultural Society of London, in a meeting of just seven men including Sir Joseph Banks and John Wedgwood. Dedicating the Society to the improvement and practice of horticulture, their aim was to introduce a scientific- and evidence-based approach and to be a conduit for sharing knowledge. It was a small, learned society made up of well-to-do enthusiasts and a small number of professional gardeners and nurserymen.
