Royal Horticultural Society
Acronym: RHSDescription
The Royal Horticultural Society is the UK’s leading gardening charity. We aim to enrich everyone’s life through plants, and make the UK a greener and more beautiful place. This vision underpins all that we do – from inspirational gardens and shows, through our scientific research, to our education and community programmes. We are committed to inspiring everyone to grow.
The charitable purpose of the society is “The encouragement and improvement of the science, art and practice of horticulture in all its branches”.
As part of the advisory and research role, data on the distribution and spread of some introduced garden fauna are gathered. The native fauna and flora in the five RHS gardens is also recorded.
