A MIX of perfumes and colours welcomed visitors to a flower show in Wokingham earlier this month.
On Saturday, June 18, Wokingham Horticultural Association (WHA) held its “Summer mini” show at their trading store on the Ormonde Road Allotments site.
It featured more than 100 entries of roses, sweet peas and other blooms with prizes awarded for the best in show.
WHA’s past president, Sue Davies, and current president, Jenny Gilbert, were on hand to present the prizes with Terry Miller winning cups for both roses and sweet peas, as well as the National Sweet Pea Society bronze medal.
Ann Blakeman won the Jubilee Cup, for her large flowered rose, and shared the Gerry Higson Memorial Trophy in the novice roses classes with Lynda Arnold.
The Staniland Goblet, for mixed flowers, was won by Ruth Lambert, and she shared the Wilson Flower Trophy with Kevin Beautement for their exhibits in the 19 flower classes, excluding roses and sweet peas.
Lindsey Payne was congratulated for receiving the most votes in the Visitors’ Choice for her flower arrangement entitled “Summer Splendour”.
The afternoon was rounded off by drawing the raffle.
The WHA’s next show “Grow Your Own” is set to take place on Saturday, July 16.
