The show grounds have been thoroughly saturated by the heavy rain and there is more forecast to come. We cannot in good conscience ask our sponsors, competitors, tradespeople, food vendors and the public to deal with the extreme deterioration of the grounds if the show went ahead. We're heartbroken.
We understand the disappointment that this will cause in our community.
For those that have entered the show - please visit our website for information about refunds. We thank you for your patience and understanding as we put this process in place.
Thank you for your support through this difficult time. We look forward to putting on a sunny, spectacular show next year.

Agapanthus is one of Kiwi gardeners' most popular flowers, but it could be argued the southern African plant is also our most visible invasive weed.

It's a major threat to native plants, and some councils list it as a pest species. Did you know it was a weed? And do you think it needs eradicating, or is it a welcome addition to your garden?
