The Central Daffodil Group recently held our annual Daff bulb Sales in conjunction with the Central Dahlia Group , at their late show in Feilding , a convenient central location .
We went well prepared with good signage and some local advertising . Good numbers of bulbs in $ 5 – 00 bags and a few much bigger lots .Sales were excellent ; a big early rush and then very steady for the rest of the day .
The sales team , mid afternoon , stocks well down .Good to see Wayne H back on deck , ably assisted by David L , Wilfred Hall , Brian McK and sales manager Diane I .
And the dahlias , despite a severe local drought , were exceptional .
If you are still in the grips of winter , – enjoy these warm colours .
