Dundee Flower and Food Festival

[Jeff Hutchings]

I have accepted an invitation to attend this three day Festival in a couple of weeks (31st Aug, 1st & 2nd Sept) and will be taking a wide range of hardy orchids for sale including a number of British natives. If members are visiting the show come and have a chat.
