Beautiful begonias brighten up the day

The flowers were judged in 14 different classes at Outwood Memorial Hall.

National Begonia Society president and branch representative Jeff Rhodes said: “It was an excellent show. And there was a good number of the public through the door as well, more than we’ve had before.”

But the amount of entries had dropped compared to last year, he said.
