Canada: Peonies to blossom in Castlegar
This year's show is planned a little earlier in the hopes that locals can just go out into the yard, cut their blooms, and enter them into the show. The show is an amateur, entry level show in which everyone is invited to participate. Entries must be delivered on Friday, June 10. There are about 60 classes and four ribbons per class will be awarded.
Last year quite a number of the entries were from out of the region, and organizers would really love to see locals walk away with a lot of the ribbons this year. "We need the locals to buy in and help us make a fabulous show," said organizer Holly Pender-Love. "One bud, one arrangement, ten or fifteen flowers, we don't care. We want them to feel that the show belongs to Castlegar."
