Congratulations to the Lancs & Cheshire Carnation Society on winning not just a Gold Medal but also the Trophy for the Best Carnation display at the Southport Flower Show, well done to you all.

Also many congratulations to Trevor Hogg on winning the BNCS Silver Medal Card for his vase of five Heracles, one of the best vases of Heracles that I have seen for a long time.

Digital Newsletter
We did not get as many replies for this request as I had hoped, by agreeing to this it does not mean you can't have a hard copy we will still print enough for all members. You will still be able to pick one up at one of the meetings after it is issued.
cheers
