July 22, 2015. Flower Show and Tea showcased beautiful entries Lucknow Horticultural Society Valerie Gillies Lucknow Sentinel The Lucknow Horticul- tural Society held their annual Flower Show and Tea at the Lucknow United Church on July 22, 2015. As usual, the entries in the show were arranged around the outer perimeter or the room while refreshments were served in the centre of the room, affording a won- derful atmosphere for dining with all of the colourful entries. Mary Lou Irwin of Luc - know attended for her first time. She was very impressed with the flowers and added, "Lunch is good too." Betty Lou Dalton com- mented that there is always a good variety at the show. She credits this to the members stating, "There are great gar- dens in the area" Assistant District Director of area Horticultural Socie- ties Theresa McLaughlin mused that this year she has been on three garden tours and that this is her third flower show. In describing the Lucknow show she remarked, "there are beauti- ful flowers and the Lucknow Horticultural Society has done a wonderful job." President of the Lucknow Horticultural Society Wendy Snow commented on the differences this year. More members are on holidays so the entries and display are not as packed as usual. Some of the ones absent are key showers. Despite this, Snow is pleased that there is a strong showing. She reports, "As always, everyone has worked hard." Next year's Flower Show and Tea will be changed to June from July. Changing the timing in the season allows for different plant selections to be showcased. More photos on page 11
