The Smithurst Theatre will be a riot of colour and fragrance when the doors open on the annual Rose Show from October 18-19.
For a gold coin donation, visitors will be treated to a stunning display of blooms from town and country gardens across 13 sections, including white, bi-colour, mauve, yellow, pink, red, orange and Double Delight. There will also be a section for the exquisite Peace Rose and Floribunda, or any other colour not mentioned.
Gardeners with multiple blooms are invited to enter a vase of six roses of different colours, with the Mitre 10 Champion Rose of the Show, a coveted prize at the end of judging.
Hosted by the Gunnedah Show Ladies Auxiliary, members are grateful for section prizes donated by the business community.
The annual rose show is always dependent on the vagaries of the weather and organisers are hoping for a perfect season. Entries will be accepted from 7:30am to 11:30m on the Friday, with doors open to the public from 9am on both days.
