Tonight the peonies are coming...
It's now Saturday, we have been here since Wednesday night. We finished the Desert to Jungle display on Thursday and we are very proud of it actually, it's the best display we've ever done. The biggest problem was holding back and not planting too densely. The stand has a good three days to settle down before judging. We try to achieve a multi-layered effect to mimic the rainforest with a canopy, mid-layer and under planting.
Our 2 displays are side-by-side which is very convenient! We had a major panic with the Kelways stand yesterday, 2 trolleys of Irises crashed at the nursery and we lost around 200 plants. We are in the process of giving the Irises that arrived in one piece the final once-over. It's a very painstaking task, really really slow and detailed but the end result is stunning. We have to trim every leaf and un-wrap each separate flower then we water each plant before they are placed on the stand.
