Some varieties are especially grown for their scent while others for their numerous blooms or new colours. Since we have so many flowers available at this time of year, we also include flowers such as begonias, carnations, pansies, petunias, phlox, sweet peas, columbines, canterbury bells, delphiniums etc. You must be a member to enter your flowers, so be sure to join up before the rose show. August 9th and 10th we hold our annual Antique and Flower Show and Sale at the Lakefield-Smith Arena. Horticulturalists get together with antique dealers for a unique and interesting display of their wares.
Floral designers show off their works of green-thumb art.
Our Antique Sale and Flower Show is always a huge success. This Show is held in the second week of August each year at the Lakefield-Smith Community Centre. They grow and dry flowers and create lovely arrangements, wreaths etc. Oct. 10th - Garden Design and Autumn Gardens, Miriam Mutton.
