All entries welcome.  Absolutely anyone can have a go!  Exhibitors are allowed to make more than one entry in any class.  We’re hoping for a large, colourful and varied display that celebrates the diversity of the plants we grow.   Judging will be by popular vote - everyone who attends plays a part.
