Thanks for that Tony.

It was noticeable that you don't seem to have any large/giant growers in your midst or was it a case you didn't get around to photoing them ;)

Plenty of small and medium cactus varieties around though along with a few small & miniature decs.

Even the poms and waterlily varieties were in short supply, don't the growers in your area go in for these?


After saying that I still think it was a magnificent turnout.

Well done!.....Tg

they all grow outdoors, TG, and the recent rain hadn't done any of the 'giant' growers any favours! (I asked the chairman), btw
