Is this the Wigginton Gardeners Secret of Success?

The Wigginton Gardeners Associatio does more that just organise two shows a year - one in the Spring and one in the Autumn.
It also organises a Plant Sale in the church yard of Wigginton's Parish Church of St Bartholomew, situated at the crossroads between the Chesham Road, The Twist, Hemp Lane and Vicarage Road.
Now you've really got a good chance of getting some really outstanding plants here - you see, the plants are donated for sale to charity by those same Wigginton Gardeners who display those stunning blooms and high quality vegetables that you can see in the shows.
Now they woudn't want to donate anything that might damage their reputations. So you can more or less rely on picking up a shy and retiring seedling or two likely to turn into one of those botanical beauties that appear in the shows.
It was a good day for the sale last month as you can see in the photograph.
But don't worry if you missed this year's sale - there will be another one next year!
