Octavia Hill geraniums for sale at Erddig, Wrexham

Octavia Hill geraniums for sale at Erdigg. Octavia Hill was a conservationist, artist, writer, scholar and teacher. She was also co-founder of the National Trust.
In 1885, Octavia Hill, Robert Hunter and Hardwicke Rawnsley (who collected rents for Octavia Hill as a young man) worked together to raise public awareness of the railway developments threatening the Lake District. This collaboration led to the foundation of The National Trust for the Preservation of Historic Buildings and Natural Beauty, to hold land and buildings in perpetuity "for ever, for everyone". Thank you Octavia Hill.
