Flowers will be in bloom at Whanganui’s upcoming Autumn Flower Show.
Whanganui Chrysanthemum Club members are hosting the show in conjunction with the Wanganui Horticultural Society.
In the hall foyer, there will be competitive works created by Wanganui Floral Art Society members who are presenting an autumn theme: Tints and Tones of Autumn.
Titles include An Autumn Cone, Rust and Rope, Razzle Dazzle and Modern Mass. There are three classes children can enter - kindergarten, primary and intermediate. Entries for a competition to design an egg in a carton close on Thursday. There will be prizes for all three classes donated by Springvale Garden Centre.
In the main hall, chrysanthemum blooms will be on display. They come in a large array of varieties and colours. There will be a number of categories, including large exhibition, decorative, single, fantasy, and anemone-centred.
