 On Tuesday we had our Members Spring Show at our meeting.  Petersgate School was filled with beautiful, colourful Spring flowers and pots of bulbs; a wonderful fragrance filled the hall.

In the Autumn every member is given a bulb to plant at home and asked to bring it to this event to see who has skilfully timed the planting it to coincide with the show; the weather and nurturing play a big part!  This year it is a tulip.  

Thirteen lovely pink Tulips were judged and the winner was Chris Moulson.

 The Competition was as follows;

A  Single 'Club' bulb.   1st. Chris Moulson

A Pot of Daffodils.  None:  Due to the warm weather all the daffodils were too early.

A Pot of Tulips.  1st. Linda Pridham  2nd. Beryl Turner

A Pot of small Spring Bulbs. 1st. Linda Pridham

A Vase of Spring Flowers and Foliage (any size).  1st. June Simmon 

At our next meeting 13th June a Single Rose in a Vase will be judged.
