Titahi Bay was actually the first show of the season ,( Saturday 31 August and Sunday 1 September .)Well supported by the Kapiti Coast growers and a good muster of locals .I staged my flowers on the Friday evening and previously posted some photos that I took then and with the results Margaret Seconi posted online .Finally got around to putting the winning flowers , with great photos , all taken by Margaret , on Daffnet .At all shows I attended this season , poets were in contention for the top awards . It would be expected at the late shows , but not at the first , in late August .However the judges are not slow to reward the clever breeders for the high standard that the poets are now showing .Judge was Diane Irwin , assisted by husband Peter .
