A Good Year for the Roses at Badshot Lea

23 June 2008

Squires Garden Centre Squire's Garden Centre at Badshot Lea hosted the South of England Show of the Royal National Rose Society last weekend. Visitors were treated to a delightful and fragrant display of roses together with a beautiful exhibition of floral art and a truly magnificent display of quilts made by local needlework groups. 

The South of England Show is one of only two in the country of national standing and has been hosted by Squire's for nearly thirty years. However, this is the first time that the event has been held at Badshot Lea. It was attended by the Mayor of Farnham, Councillor Gillian Beel, in whose ward the show took place, and the Deputy Mayor of Rushmoor, Councillor Roger Kimber.  

Exhibitors came from as far away as Ramsbottom, Felixstowe, Southport and Cumbria to show their roses and many of them had travelled through the night in order to set up their exhibits in time for judging on Saturday morning.
