Worle Century Club held its flower show and despite the recent bad weather, plenty of fine floral creations were entered.
First-time winner in the begonia class was show secretary Richard Knowles with his multi-stemmed flower. He won the Ray Cliff Begonia Cup.
There was also a lot of competition over who had grown the biggest carrot with amazing creations up to 14ins long and 3ins wide.
