VIDEO: Pulborough spring flower show
The Pulborough Garden Society held its annual show in Pulborough Village Hall.
Barry Newman, the Royal Horticultural Society judge who assessed the flower classes, congratulated all exhibitors on getting their flowers ready to show in time after such adverse growing conditions in the winter.

Hide AdGarden Society member Mrs Janet Dudman was awarded the West Sussex VPA Federation Cup for the best exhibit in the show for her magnificent apricot-coloured Clivia.
The flower arranging, handicraft, home produce and photography sections were also well supported, and local children from St Mary’s School, the Pulborough Brownie pack and Beaver group provided a multitude of exhibits in the children’s section, the most striking being a five feet high multi-coloured paper flower created as combined effort by the children of Pulborough Pre-school.
At the end of the afternoon trophies and prizes were presented to the winners in each section by Mark Saunders, head gardener at Fittleworth House.
