THE first Whitchurch Narcissus Show has been hailed a great success by organisers and competitors alike.
Judge Eric Williams from Overton staged the entries for the competitors and no-one was disqualified for putting entries in the wrong class.
Mr Williams, a grower and judge specialising in narcissi and dahlias, lectured and judged simultaneously, keeping the competitors and visitors entertained with explanations of how to prepare the flowers to produce the maximum effect.
He then judged the entries and explained exactly what he was looking for in a bloom, illustrating his points with some of his own prize-winning exhibits.
A very surprised Jean Treble won the trophy for most points, with two firsts and two seconds.
