Cacti at Gardeners World Live- Birmingham NEC

Post by Scottyzx12 »

Took a trip to Birmingham (UK) to the Gardeners World live, flower show. An eventful day in all, 9 new purchases from 4 nurseries representing Cacti and Succulents. Of these four, 2 won Gold Medals and 2 won silver gilts (the one before gold) so a proud day for Cactiphiles! :)
Also, the Birmingham Branch of the BCSS had a stand which I went to. Got talking with Stuart the head of the Birmingham Branch and so I signed up to be a member of the BCSS :) I strongly reccomend it, I got some great free seeds and a friendly welcome :D I know there are members on here and I am honoured to join your ranks!

Great plants, it must have been a thrill to see them in person!
