Rutland’s first flower show!

August 16th: Fabulous plants, all things garden related – and some not! Full of temptations, great food stalls, and fun for kids all at Rutland’s first Flower Show, hosted at the Rutland Showground in Oakham. What a great asset for Rutland! Let’s hope it becomes an annual event. Congratulations to the organisers.

PS for sticklers- the horseshoe does have the correct number of nail-holes, honest. But the seventh is covered by the flowers!
