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.
