Great Autumn Show competition
Major prize-winner at today’s Royal Horticultural Society Great Autumn Show was our own, Adrian Baggaley. Adrian is well known to visitors to this web-site for his down to earth practical advice on fruit growing and today we saw the results with a clean sweep of the prizes. Adrian won 22 firsts and all the special awards for fruit with 31 entries and 300 fruits on display. Well done Adrian! Fruit exhibiting is still flourishing. And all this despite an atrocious year with almost no sunshine and never ending rain.
The Show continues tomorrow, 8 October, at RHS VIncent Square, London, but for those who will not get a chance to see the exhibits here are a few of Adrian’s prize-winners.
