Crazy looking flower
This photo shows the same purple water lilies as previous photo - but in afternoon hours. While this photo was taken at 15:06 KHT - closing time for purple water lilies however is typically already before noon. In Cambodia the purple water lilies are the earliest I have seen so far to close the blossoms. All others seen so far have closing time sometimes during mid afternoon hours.

Lupine at Quail Hollow Ranch, CA USA
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... Info from:
