Title: Harrogate Spring Flower show
Post by: Davidberry on April 14, 2011, 16:35:53
Is anybody else going to the Harrogate Spring Flower Show?

It's the 100th Anniversary Show so it should be good but I've never been before so don't really know what to expect!

Hadn't realised it was this weekend. I've been before, there's plenty to see but the traffic getting there can be a bit of a nightmare. I'm not sure whether it falling in Easter hols will make it better or worse.
I think TeeGee usually goes. The Autumn show is good if you're into giant veg and chrysanths!
I might go on Sunday if OH is doing something else!

Ha! I was supposed to be going this morning, then realised I had to pick up the on-call phone this afternoon, and probably wouldn't be back in time.......so, we went for a trip out to the Newark garden show instead. Not as big or as good, but I got some proper White Chives and a lovely iris cheap, so I am a happy bunny! ;D

I usually go first day but couldn't this year as the friends we normally go with couldn't manage that date.

Will be going on Sunday so I hope everything is not past its best.

I believe the 'Daff' exhibitors have had a bit of a torrid week this week and last, due to the warm spell.

So fingers crossed!
