Hello all, Sheffield branch held its annual show over the weekend. We were lucky to have (mostly) warm sunny weather over both days and had a fantastic couple of days.This year was our first time in the newly built centre in Sheffield botanic gardens, previously they had a portacabin classroom area. We had more entries than I expected and plenty of sales plants, many of which were kindly donated by various nurserymen. Our judge this year was Graham Walker from Teeside branch. Sheffield branch owe thanks to all those who took part.
(Edited because the pictures wouldn't stay in the order that the post was written.)

The plants. I'll apologise now that not all of these shots are perfect. I had to rely on my dSLR's pop up flash for a little fill and didn't want to push the iso too high as it isn't a particularly new model.

Thanks for inviting me, good to catch up with your members, especially good to see my original mentor Brian Fearn and Gill again after many years. Good plants, not always easy to judge
Thanks
Graham
