The second outing by the Wondai Garden Expo committee at the Wondai Showgrounds proved to be another success for organisers last month.<\/p>\n

The Spring Garden Expo is always huge, and the number of stallholders which turned up at the showgrounds this year did not disappoint visitors.<\/p>\n

There were stalls spread up and down the grounds, in the cattle ring and in the two pavilions.<\/p>\n

Guest speakers included Brisbane-based horticulturalist Claire Bickle, from Gardening For The Good Life.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Members from the Wondai & District Garden Club also mounted a display in the main pavilion.<\/p>\n

Val Crawford, from Kingaroy, won the ribbon for “Champion Specimen” at the club’s mini horticultural competition.<\/p>\n

Some of the other winners included Delwyn Schultz, who won the Best Exhibit In Pots and Champion Orchid.<\/p>\n
