Harrogate Spring Flower Show
Over the last four days Harrogate Flower Show has been taking place down at the Yorkshire Show Ground. If you've never been and you like all things gardening this is the place to be. It does get very busy but there are lots of places to have a sit down and catch your breath. And its not just gardening, theres lots of food and craft stalls, something for everyone.
At the Spring show I love to go and have a look at all the flower arranging. There are some absolutely stunning displays, a tremendous amount of work goes into it all, its quite amazing.
Yesterday was no exception and I went with my very talented friend, and Floral genius, Daphne who has a florists shop called Hearts and Flowers on Otley Road in Harrogate.
Daphne had entered the class called A Magical Landscape and it was all about Alnwick Castle. The design Daphne did was her interpretation of the cascading waterfall.
The waterfall is a tumbling mass of water with spellbinding displays. The Grand Cascade is the largest water feature of its kind in the country and every minute, 7260 gallons of water tumble down a series of 21 weirs .
I think Daphnes interpretation portrays this very well indeed!!
