Quality wins day at Iden Autumn Show

THE weather was to blame for reduced entries at Iden and Playden Garden Society’s Autumn Flower and Produce Show on Saturday.

But what was lacking in quantity was made up for in quality.

The Daphne Lightfoot trophy for Dahlias was won by Mrs. Ann Banning, who also won the Park Farm Trophy. The Elms Award for Floral Art was won by Mrs. Janet Johnson.
