A wasp getting into the Action on a purple cone flower. I have used the Catalogue Hils gave me and my memory to name the Suppliers of the plants photographed. Some free advertising for them, because the whole marquee was ablaze with colour and form.
A gorgeous Ladyslipper orchid from Dave Stead Orchids..
Begonias in a variety of colours from bright to pastel shades. The flowers are amazingly delicate looking. Like a more relaxed rose. From Blackmore and Langdon.
The Sumptuous Orange Mamma Mia rose (who doesnt love Abba?) from Fryer Nurseries.
The Display from Dibelys with Begonias, Coleus, and its world famous Streptocarpus.I have two more Streps now, plug plants that were encased in muslin cloth and a clear bag.
A stunning arrangement of my fav Peruvian lillies, Alstromeria from Phillip Tivey and son..
Look at the gorgeous Oriental lillys from Harts Nurserys. I saw the woman who bought the display on the left hand side carrying it away at 4pm yesterday. She must love the smell of Stargazer lillys.
High Park Nurserys Beautiful Carnations..
The Gold medal certificate given out by the RHS judges.
The Venus fly traps and Pitcher plants won a gold medal for Hampshire carniverous plants.
Hostas and Ferns from Mary Green in a naturalistic display.. 
An Orchid from the Gold medal winning display from Dave Parkinsons plants.
The aircraft hanger sized marquee with masses of plants, people, and light..
Some lovely Ornamental grasses from Foxglove plants with a Best display Gold Medal proudly on show.
