A trail of clues awaits in

Codsall & Oaken

The world-famous Russell lupin, pride of many cottage gardens, was first cultivated in Codsall in the early 20th-century. Plant breeders have heard a rumour that some of the original seeds still exist - they are worth their weight in gold for the genes they preserve if the rumour is true! The story goes that Edwardian horticulturist Teresa Green stashed some of the precious seeds in an ornate box and buried them nearby. Now, rumour has turned to reality after a weathered map and a set of clues were unearthed in the archives. The Exploration Society needs help from TOP Explorers to track down the seeds. Can YOU locate them before the other plant hunters who are hot on their tail and make your fortune, or will you just end up with weeds like so many gardeners?
