  • 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!

    September is generally a cooler, gustier month than August and the days are noticeably shorter. While there's not as much to do in the ornamental garden at this time of the year, if you have a fruit or vegetable patch, you'll be busy reaping the rewards of harvest. It's also time to get out and start planting spring-flowering bulbs for next year...

    The main jobs for September...

    • Divide herbaceous perennials
