Looks great johndoe again well done and congratations. I might and only am just thinking about it give wisley a go next year. Will mean some big changes a lot of culling and very focussed growing. I think my zoe, zoe sport and Andrea are competitive. My Diane are not far off also my senzoe Ursula. My Mary's had some cracking blooms just not consistent. Dikara superb needs to change good centre but bad petal lay. Mmmmm. Lots to ponder.

Congratulations again and remember just ask and you shall receive. Ian

By the way, if anyone's available on October 11th, there's a cracking Autumn show at Ramsbottom near Bury in Lancashire. I'll be there with whatever Veg and Dahlias I have left. There's a heritage steam railway next door which is well worth a look too.
