​Welcome
From growing things to garden history, from urban greening to organic farming, our interests are wide-ranging. We offer a chance for all who share a love of plants to meet. For more than 40 years, we have delighted in private and public garden visits, sharing gardening information, exploring horticulture in Hong Kong, plant workshops and social events. The Hong Kong Gardening Society gives us a chance to learn, as well as to exchange knowledge and experience with others.
 
We also partner with others to spread awareness of Hong Kong's rich biodiversity and abundance of flora ​and fauna.

​​
​
Join us ... and join in
Whether you're a veteran gardener, a beginner or just a plant lover, we'd like to hear from you. Become a member. The society is run entirely by volunteers and we always welcome new faces and new ideas. If you would like to get involved, please contact us.

​This wild plant is usually so heavily ravaged by insects that it is rarely noticed.
