| Welcoming walkway |
With Volunteer firemen in the family certainly could not miss this show.

Fire Mountain

| Even a firebreathing dragon. |
 |
| Lovely bicolour |
 |
| Mauve, ruby red , pink, purple and white combos |

Oh Rosemary, this is my idea of a play date!! What gorgeous flowers!! Some I have never seen in my life. My dad was a fireman so I loved all the fireman designs - just fantastic. The bench and chairs with the flower seat cushions and pillows - I want them!!! Thanks for sharing this fun play date. xo
This looks beautiful! What a fun outing!
Wow! What fantastic pictures and flower designs. Wish I could have been there too.
Hi Rosemary, I have never heard of this show, but it looks great based on your pictures. You did a beautiful job with your camera. The pictures are just stunning! I wonder if the show is still on this weekend. I wouldn't mind going.Have a great weekend!
Thanks for all the nice comments
This show is still on this weekend if you are in the Hamilton area...
