Great Dixter Mind Map Auction

Read more ...

Great Dixter has training, teaching and sharing knowledge at its very heart.  Fergus Garrett, head gardener, is passionate in spreading the experience of learning about gardening, as well as teaching the skills and techniques required.

 

Fergus has developed his own method of teaching through the visual aid of mind maps; these are created not only for his own team of gardeners but for lectures and symposia.

 

The mind maps reveal the complexity of the way that Great Dixter is managed and gardened.

 

Fergus is offering 5 of his original mind-maps to auction for the Student Fund.

 

As a bonus Lot, we have a First Edition of Christopher Lloyd’s Foliage Plants published in 1973 and signed by Christopher Lloyd.

When bidding on an auction item, if you enter more than the minimum increment for an item then your bid will be used for proxy bidding. This is how it works:
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
