Guinevere reviewed: Willow Plant Supports

"This course really surpassed my expectations, thank you! I also felt it was great value for money because, in addition to receiving expert tuition, we were able to take away truly useful and unique structures for our own gardens. Thank you."

Windrush Willow responded:

"Hi Guinevere, Many thanks for your kind comments glad you had a good day. Regards Richard Kerwood"
