Just some pictures of the plants that I felt in love with today in the lea valley annual show (excuse my bad photograph skills) and some new plants I couldn’t resist to buy. I have been more of a succulent collector than a cactus collector. But after seeing some cacti in the show I think I may be converted
(I seem not to be able to make the pictures upright)

Re: Lea Valley Annual Show
Some beautiful plants there and your new purchases look good. It's always worth going along to some of the local shows to see the exhibits and maybe talk to their owners, who are always ready to give advice on cultivation. It's also a good way to buy reliable and well grown small plants from enthusiasts or specialist nurseries.

Re: Lea Valley Annual Show
Yes, indeed, it was good to see the sales plants, for the three little ones on the right were from me!
Hope you enjoyed your visit.
