  • Remembering Prestatyn Flower Show

    Held annually for 25 years in Prestatyn town centre within beautiful North Wales, Prestatyn Flower Show was a traditional, two day flower show event and considered by many residents and visitors alike to be an anticipated highlight of the town's summer festivities, alongside the town's annual Classic Car Show and the annual Prestatyn Carnival.

    Prestatyn Flower Show blended a relaxing, midsummer garden fête atmosphere, combined with some serious judging of specimen and cut flower arrangements, plants, fruit and vegetable classifications, home baking, arts and crafts. Followed by trophy presentations and auctions, the Flower Show provided a range of both serious and fun competitions, entertainment and activities for all ages.

    With prize-winning exhibits, arts and crafts, beautiful plants and hand crafted garden furniture for sale, a sprinkle of classic car and vintage motorcycle displays, Prestatyn Flower Show also offered delicious refreshments and afternoon cream teas, live jazz, choirs and traditional brass band music; albeit quite often accompanied by a warm summer breeze and of course, equally the odd British summer shower!

    There really was always something for everyone to enjoy, with many local schools, organisations, homes and businesses supporting and taking part in the event, which required considerable organisation and time spent.

    Photos from Prestatyn Flower Shows are available to view and enjoy from within the Gallery.

    Meanwhile, the always popular Prestatyn Classic Car Show and Prestatyn Carnival are set to continue!

  • Gardening jobs for November

    Leaves are falling rapidly, and wind and rain are on the increase. Tender plants will need protecting from frost, gales and freezing rains. Move plants into the greenhouse, or into a sheltered spot, but if you can't, it is worth wrapping plants or pots. Remember winter can be a tough time for birds in terms of water and food, so keep supplies well topped up.

    This month's main gardening jobs are:

    • Clear up fallen leaves - especially from lawns, ponds and beds
    • Raise containers onto pot feet to prevent waterlogging
    • Plant tulip bulbs for a spring display next year
