4 2019 CHAIRMAN S MESSAGE The Spring Flower Show 2019 represents an exciting new departure for the Cornwall Garden Society in that we are moving the show to the Royal Cornwall Showground at Wadebridge. It offers major advantages in terms of space for exhibition of entries, trade stands, access, parking and other facilities. I have every confidence that under the leadership of Andrew Leslie, Chairman of the Show Committee and Dickie Trant, the Show Director, this year will be a great success. The Competitive Classes are of course at the heart of the show; and it is to you, the exhibitors, to whom we are indebted for your participation, and the work that goes into it. I much look forward to welcoming you to Wadebridge.
