The Farrer Medal for best plant in Show at the 25th Anniversary Show in Hexham has been won by Rannveig and Bob Wallis.  It is  Empodium elongatum  and the photo is from Peter Maquire.



Super plant- another Farrer for Rannveig and Bob Wallis - master growers!

The highly efficient team who run the show tell me there were 247  entries totalling 361 plants in the Open section from 32  exhibitors. Section 2 had 5  entries  from 4 exhiitors so well done  to them.
