| An outstanding display of reticulata irises from Jacques Amand in the front of the hall at the RHS flower show last Friday, covering both old and new cultivars. Friday is a first for me in my RHS show-going career, but there was certainly a large turn-out later in the day. |

| A display of sweet violets was charming - and I don't recall seeing such a stand at the February show before. |

| Viola 'Pink Czar' |

| The sumptuous foliage and flowers of Impatiens morsei on Dibleys' stand. |

| In the Woody Plant Committee meeting we were shown a range of the best new introductions of Hamamelis by Chris Lane - a wonderful assortment, greatly enhancing the options available. |
 |
| Edgeworthia chrysantha 'Grandiflora' from Exbury, passed round in the meeting: it is strongly and not pleasantly scented. |
