.......would have taken place tomorrow. In 2020 it was the only show SRGC members could take part in and a very good show it was- see the photos on this forum and Sandy Leven's report which ran to 4 parts!

This springs has been colder and later so my plants, which mostly live outside, are both late and a bit battered by the weather. Some of these would probably never have reached the show bench - and those that did would have to have the pots cleaned!

Stan, thank you for your show!

A bright display after the Winter gloom.

Lovely display, Stan. Interesting to see Irises 'Katharine Hodgkin', 'Sheila Ann Germaney' and 'Frank Elder' all flowering together. I have all three and they flower in succession so I don't see them all in flower at the same time. Katherine is first followed by Sheila and Frank is just starting now.

Thanks, Stan, a wonderful display, as ever

A few plants from me - the reticulate irises are all finished with me though had a good display in the garden earlier.
