If you get tired of all those "Jubilee Celebrations" then don't forget that it is the Lea Valley Branch's Annual Show and Plant Sales for all four days of the "Bank Holiday Weekend".
The Show itself is judged on Saturday 2nd June and then most plants will remain as a display of plants for the next three days.
From Saturday 2nd June to Tuesday 5th of June there will be many plants for sale, not only a wide variety of cacti and other succulents but also lots of garden plants too.
We hope to see as many of you there as possible (I will be wearing my badge, if you don't know me!!)
For further details and schedule see these links:

Monday 4th June will also feature the "Herts Heavy Horse Show" at the same venue, and Capel Manor gardens and the "Gardening Which" trial grounds are well worth a look too.

Re: THIS SATURDAY TO TUESDAY - Lea Valley Show , Enfield
An excellent show in an excellent venue, congratulations to the winners and well done the organisers.
Needless to say, I went away with a few plants.
Nice to see some forum members, Cactus kid and Tony R.
