There is a cut flower section not limited to SRGC members. The winning daffodils are a historic variety from the Brodie collection in NE Scotland

Really good show and the cakes  were lovely.    ::)

Stan - once again you have gone above and beyond the call of duty for the Club - not only do you contribute so many good plants to the show - which you've drive half way round the country but you have also, in super quick time, managed to get all these great photos to us to give us the experience of  seeing the show plants and all the folks enjoying the real event.  Thank you!

The Nairn Community Centre is a very good venue for the show - not hard to find, parking in the area, great cake and a hall with natural light and plenty space to stroll around in comfort- no wonder Show Secretaries David and Carol Shaw look  so happy -  they and their team must be very pleased with their work!
