Best in show was awarded to Matthew Soper of Hampshire Carnivorous Plants and he was delighted.
"This is a very special year, not only because of this award at Tatton Park but it means we have won ten consecutive golds at Chelsea, ten at Hampton Court, ten at BBC Gardeners' World Live and now ten at Tatton Park and best in show. I couldn't be more pleased, it's fantastic!" Well done to Matthew. I couldn't mention the floral marquee again without letting you know how Medwyn Williams got on. Well, his gold medal record is as unblemished as his prize winning vegetables; another gold for Medwyn and an unbroken record. And to top it off the sun is shining! I'm really not used to this at a flower show, I might have to go and have a lie down. In the sun. With an ice cream perhaps...

In addition to the previous photos with white dwarf lotus blossoms - here you see a photo of small white dwarf lotus flower group next to full size Cambodian white lotus. This photo shows you a natural environment - very murky, very muddy water with deep muddy soil. The photo also shows you the proportion of the tiny dwarf lotus blossoms and dwarf lotus leaves compared to the "grown up lotus" of the neighboring Cambodian white lotus flower.
While the water looks dirty, it is brown from clean natural mud - an environment free of major chemical pollution or industrial pollution. We luckily have NO industry within long distance from here. What a blessing to be living in true nature!
The lotus pond here is surrounded by rice fields and other ponds with a variety of aquatic life, aquatic flowers and plants, fish, and lots of leeches of different kind.
