It is with regret that the National Sweet Pea Society Exhibitions, which were to be held both at Stewarts Gardenlands, Christchurch on the 1st and 2nd July and the RHS Harlow Carr, Harrogate, to be held on the 11th and 12th July have been cancelled for this year, but a"Virtual Shjow" is to be held..
All the RHS shows, where we have a Society Stand have been cancelled up to the end of July and also many local shows we were due to attend and events we were holding.
However we are now able to announce that agreement has been reached to hold a "Virtual Show". Entries have now closed and results will be published in August.
