Kevock  won Gold too - sorry about this news coming in dribs and drabs - the official website was slow to have the results and I haven't had time to check back yet!

The results are online now : http://www.flowershow.org.uk/show-info/results-spring-2014

Avon Bulbs, Hartside, Harperley Hall, Slack Top, D'Arcy and Everest .....  Certainly seems that all our well-known nurseries have done well........

Maggi I know Jackie & the girls are the Bosses but I'm sure Rob did something to help.

Yes,  Mike, of course Rob can be seen helping in some photos of the set-up - but  he himself gives the credit to "the Girls" for this Harrogate success     


I will see if I can find the link to show the photos here. .....   yes, I think you can see the pix here, without being logged into Facebook :
