And to prove that there can be  coincidences, look at  this photo from Paddy Parmee of the  Farrer Medal winning plant  at the  AGS  Show today at Rosemoor .... :)


"Farrer medal goes to Jim Mcgregor for this wonderful pot of narcissus bulbocodium conspicuus"

 It seems to be  sunshine  daff day throughout the UK!

 From
RHS Joint Rock Committee   on Twitter :

"The RHS Joint Rock Plant Committee @RHSJointRock gave an Award Of Merit to Narcissus bulbocodium conspicuous shown by Jim McGregor at the AGS South West (Rosemoor) Show.
Kew lists this plant as Narcissus bulbocodium quintanilhae. "

David's Forrest medal pot  also   won the Ben Ledi  trophy for best European  plant; he received  the Glassford Sprunt trophy for best bulbs in a 19 cm pot with another, smaller,  N obesus Lee Martin.
Peter Semple took the Quaich for best non European plant with a fine pot  of Tecophilea cyanocrocus.
Alan & Jane Thomson won the Spiller Primula trophy against stiff competition with P. Jackie Richards. Their Hepatica Millstream  Merlin received  a merit certificate  as did Sue Simpson-Watt's Anisotome.

Carole  Bainbridge- Ian wasn't able to be with us -  received a merit certificate for Primula palinuri. Your correspondent  again brought  most plants so took the Carnegie Dunfermline Trophy for most points in the open section  back home again. Carolyn McNab won the Fife County trophy for Section 2. 
a couple of snaps of the hall before  the public  came in.
more snaps tomorrow

Urgent notice : re SRGC Stirlingshire Show at Dunblane 23rd March 2019
« Reply #5 on: March 23, 2019, 06:23:40 PM »

Can I bring this urgent  note to the attention of readers  and show-goers:
The following plants were taken from the showbench by mistake - Narcissus Ballet Girl, Senecio leucophyllus. Synthyrus stellate, these were in a cardboard tomato  box belonging to M& H Taylor - please can they be returned to Edinburgh Show. (that's on 13th April)
