The National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens (NCCPG) is the co-ordinating charity behind the national Plant Collection scheme. Its aims are to conserve, document, promote and make available the
great diversity of garden plants for the benefit of horticulture.
It was first established in 1978 when it was realised that many plants were being lost to society as fashions changed.
The Lakeland
Horticultural Society holds National Collections of Astilbe, Hydrangea and Polystichum.
Information leaflets on these three National Collections are available from Reception.
