Dr Richard Warren, co-organiser of the show and a member of the British Orchid Growers Association, said: “Our aim is to illustrate reliable types of orchids that people can grow on their own window sills or in their own gardens.
“We encouraged visitors to bring their problem orchids along to the show, where we can offer advice and guidance".
