After the show people also had the opportunity to sell their exhibits to raise funds for future flower shows.
Refreshments were available in the Charter town hall, with freshly made rolls with salad plus teas and a range of delicious home made cakes.
Cllr Kathy Pearce said: “It’s great that so many people have taken part and, has become the norm, the quality of exhibits is exceedingly high.
“This is a real community event.”
