Can we see it too please Carol? Or maybe it's back there on pages 1 or 2 and I missed it?

Oh, I remember now. It is rather sumptuous and gorgeous isn't it. Thanks for the reminder.

I was sorry that I had not posted a picture of a plant exhibited by the Show Sec even though I had taken one, just that I thought my pic was pretty poor, however as no one else seems to have posted a red prize plant for John I have resurrected the pic from my computer recycle bin and post it now. Quite how show secs have the time to exhibit at their own show I don't know but amazingly they do so well done again John
Lachenalia arbuthnotiae (label was slightly out of focus so I hope thats right)
Sorry for taking so long to acknowledge your post, George. Yes, it can get pretty hectic for Show Secs in the run up to Show day. Spot on with your naming: while it is one of the less flamboyant (bizarre) lachenalias it is one of the best. It was in a small pot thus easy to clean and its partner in the 2 pan class was a Leucocoryne, which was on its fourth Show outing, hence aleady clean.  It was marvellous to see so many of our SRGC members from the North of England showing and visiting. As Maggi mentionrd elsewhere, Norwich was probably a step too far for some. Fortunately, Glasgow's gain.  I'll see you at Ponteland in the Autumn, George.
