AGS East Anglia Show 2nd May 2009

[Martinr]

I'm sure you've all been wondering what happened in sun drenched Wymondham on Saturday. I was going to post a whole load of pictures but time has run out

I've attached to this message a picture of Lee & Julie Martin's Farrer medal winning Dianthus squarrosus. If you'd like to see more I have uploaded a lot of pictures on the AGS website or you can wait patiently till next weekend when I should have time to post them all here

[Maggi Young]

Wow, Martin, that is a FAB plant!  Many congratulations to the winning Martins for their skill in producing that beauty. Not a plant we see much on the show benches up here.... more's the pity ..... actually we don't see many Dianthus at all.

I was there too but busy with entries and results ..... and then we went camping (see Rhododendron thread!)
Before judging I photographed just one plant ... should have been judging perhaps

Dianthus squarrosus - what else!

Later Allium rosenbachianum also caught my eye.
