Exeter - South West AGS Show
« on: April 12, 2013, 04:51:36 PM »
Northern English and Scots will be heading for Hexham for the Nothumberland SRGC/AGS show tomorrow, but southerners will be able to make their way to Exeter for the South West AGS Show.

I hope all attending have a super day out - preferably with lovely Spring weather!

That was funny- I thought about saying something along those lines about furthest Devon, but thought you'd give me a row for it!  ::) ;D

Flagged out after a busy day at the South West AGS Show managing the members plant stall all day. So busy I don't have a single picture to show you. As related to me the Farrer would have been awarded to Brian and Jo Walker's huge pot of Fritillaria davidii that got the award at Chesterfield last week but, because of this it couldn't be awarded to the same plant this week and the plant was awarded Best in Show instead. If this is all wrong don't me blame me I'm only the messenger.

Cliff Booker was at the Show (after a few days here in the rainy, wet, miserable South West) and I'm sure in time he will be able to add some pictorial colour.

Spent the only break I had talking Primulas, and enjoying every minute of it, with David Philbey (Jon Evans' father-in-law) the doyen of Primula growers.

Arrived home with a memory card full of images from our wonderful few days in Devon.  Gave a presentation to the very friendly South Devon AGS Group on Wednesday, coastal hiking on Thursday, garden visiting on Friday and the AGS Exeter (South West) Show on Saturday.  So little time to process images before our trip to the Peloponnese, but I will take the liberty of posting some images from the show, but must apologise for a lack of labels or names of exhibitors.
