Kendal show 2021

[Stan da Prato]

.......would have taken  place  tomorrow. In  2020 it was the only  show SRGC members   could  take part in and a very good show it  was- see  the photos  on this forum and Sandy Leven's  report which  ran to 4 parts!
(https://www.srgc.net/add-show-reports.as)
This springs  has been colder  and later  so my plants, which  mostly live outside,  are both late and a bit battered  by the weather. Some of these would probably  never  have reached the show  bench - and those that  did   would have to have the pots cleaned!

A bright display after the Winter gloom.

Lovely display, Stan.  Interesting to see Irises 'Katharine Hodgkin', 'Sheila Ann Germaney' and 'Frank Elder' all flowering together.  I have all three and they flower in succession so I don't see them all in flower at the same time.  Katherine is first followed by Sheila and Frank is just starting now.

Thanks, Stan, a wonderful display, as ever

A few plants from me - the reticulate irises are all finished with me though had a good display in the garden earlier.


Ozothamnus coralloides


Scilla siberica 'Spring Beauty'


Primula 'Lindum Candyfloss'


Crocus huffelianus - does well in the garden also
