Rosemary Duckett 1935 - 2025

With great sadness, we recently learnt of the death of Rosemary, a longstanding member of the Wiltshire Botanical Society and a staunch supporter. She passed away peacefully on Monday 7th October 2025 in Westbury after a long illness.

Rosemary was truly one of a kind, and her kindness, thoughtfulness and unique approach to life will be sorely missed by her 'planty friends'. She found her interest in plants quite late in life and made many good friends in the WBS. We will miss her hugely and send our deepest condolences to her family.

An obituary will be published in our next newsletter.
