Phil Green Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Yep, congratulations to all. Seen BE's Neps for 2 days running now. Lets hope we get to see more of them all. Did see a stand of Sarra's in the background yesterday - and someones 'best side'. Couldn't tell who as for the several seconds they were just facing the other way, bent over - luckily no builder bum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osmosis Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 Here you go. This is BEs display. These photos don't do it justice - 4 months in the planning, 10 days to build, and a very well deserved 3rd gold that was obtained by a very comfortable margin. All this despite unusually challenging hot and dry conditions Two items of especial interest were the 'King of Hearts' black truncata, and a mature lowii showing the exudate and explaining the recent discovery of the tree shrew mutualism - both got a lot of interest from the public and media. You may also have seen the coverage from the new 'Bill Bailey' hybrid ventricosa x singalana http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/chels...t.html?image=14 http://twitpic.com/1qe8cc http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/chels...s-unveiled.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamInLondon Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 (edited) A few more photos to add ... The BE stand was looking stunning, and it was great to say hello to Rob and Diana. I especially liked this label This cross had been singled out and was on the 'winners' stand': N. x 'Bill Bailey' Edited May 29, 2010 by SamInLondon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
