Can anyone tell us the name of the first prize-winning Rhododendron in image 5639? The white one on the right. It's smothered in flowers and just beautiful.

geographical classes then towards the end of the open section the class for plants lifted from the open  had two magnificent specimens -Peter Semple's large bowl of primroses and Watt Russel's huge trillium.
