Show Report
There were 52 exhibits staged.compared to 45 in 2012
Quality was good but the weather did not give the same standard as last year
GFGS wish to thank the Cheltenham Horticultural Society for the loan of the bikini vases and the Cotswold Fuchsia & Pelargonium Society for their help and support.

The Sweetpea Show shared its venue with the 44th Annual Fuchsia Show of the Cotswold Fuchsia and Pelargonium Society. The following pictures are from their show.
