I presume this is still on next Saturday (30th Sept) as there has been no mention of it on here. Unusual absence.

Sorry Eric, too busy!!! yes it's on. Full details of Nurseries attending via the AGS home page stop press bit. I'll try to find time to copy list here tomorrow.

Thanks Maggi for doing the necessary.

Judging by these photos from the show - shown on facebook - it looks like there were no shortage of members managing to contact Martin R. with their entries for the show - it looks to have been a lovely display.
Just look at the superb Farrer Medal winning plant - a Cyclamen maritimum, shown by Ian Robertson - no stranger to top awards, that chap!

September show and still weather good enough for an outdoor picnic - no wonder they're smiling!
Rob Potterton reported that there were plenty early customers for the plant stalls...
