Hello my fellow enthusiasts!
The East Tennessee Daffodil Society Show was held in the local 1st United Methodist Church of Maryville Tennessee.
Usually held in Knoxville at the University of Tennesse, this year it seems there seemed to have been a mix up at the
school and the show needed to move, so they had a 1 day show at Maryville’s Methodist Church. 1 day shows are sad because
it’s so much work to put on, then to take down right away at the end of the day.
Because the season was so very slow to start, there were not as many blooms as expected, but visitors from other parts of the south and mid south brought there’s and it turned out to be a nice show.
Photos below. The next posting will be my version of the Convention photos, then onto the Indiana Daffodil Society show 2 days ago, then our local SWODS show here in Cincinnati yesterday. I have 2 more shows to visit after this and it will take quite a bit of time to edit these photos before I can post to both Facebook and Daffnet.
Onward Springtime!
