Hi all,
Anyone go to Malvern this year ? I went to Malvern for the first time and
was struck by the amazing array of "Betterware" stalls that were there.
People selling everything from mops to toothpaste. I just wondered if
anyone else was a bit annoyed about all the rubbish you had to trawl
through to get to the good stuff.

I've been to several other big(ish) shows in the past and I don't remember
any of them being quite so ... infested.

Don't get me wrong I liked the show, the gardens were great, the plants
stalls were nice (if not exactly cheap), and the tool sellers were
plentiful. It just seemed twice the size it really needed to be to address
gardening. Oh and the weather was fantastic for such a day out.

Ho hum, just my 2pence worth.

Hubby and i went ,i am new to the gardening bug so i havent been to any shows before, we really enjoyed it.

and the lilies in the big tents were out of this world i thought.

Hubby is not into gardening but he said he really enjoyed it because there was plenty of stalls to look round.
i thought the screen in one of the gardens made out of bike wheels was a good idea, i am into clematis and thought it would be good to see a clematis growing up that screen. i got myself another clematis and a varigated leafed lily of the valley while i was there .
I was looking for a hosta with the name of BRENDAS BEAUTY but didnt find one

our feet were killing us with all the walking we did but it was worth it ,i thnk i will be going again .
