What a great show! Super  pictures , Graeme - that's a great show in a super hall for sure - Martin R. must be  a happy man! ( Or he WILL be, when he's got it all tidied up, got home, had a good supper and a little kip!)

it was a good show - just the quantity and quality of plants - Saw Martin R and he will be happy with the attendance.  Lawrence was in the hall whilst I was taking pictures but he is not on any as far as I can see.

What a fabulous show! So many incredible plants, looks to be a great venue and plenty of people there too.

Pilfered pic from Adrian Young of  some plants from Lawrence Peet at Loughborough show today  - I think we can be sure that these bode well for Lawrence's success again at this year's shows

Nice to see our pink Hepatica crept into the corner of one your pics.  Terrific show, just long drive home.

Really good venue. Light in the Hall was great and parking easy.
Photos are still in the camera, will get round to dealing with them when it rains.

Graeme, thanks for the photo essay, especially as you're the first in a long time not to feature my bald patch!

A very successful day with 709 plants on the benches from 79 exhibitors and a total attendance of 672 :)

Just need to iron out a few things like how to get to the loo when most of the 672 are jamming the nursery sales tables :P

Big thanks to all who helped and all who came to see

Wow - what a colourful display, looks like there were some smashing plants on the bench.

Thank you for the effort you have put in to take and post the photographs so us 'stay at homes' can enjoy the day as well.  It is greatly appreciated.

Susan  :)
