Payhembury Spring Bulb & Flower Show

The Spring Bulb and Flower Show was founded by members of the Payhembury Women’s Institute in 1962, but run independently of that organisation, so 2013 saw the 50th Anniversary. This is because the 39th show had to be cancelled in 2001 due to the Foot and Mouth restrictions.

It takes place in the Parish Hall on a Saturday in March close to the first day of Spring. Unfortunately, we have been unable to hold the Show in 2020 or 2021 so far. Look out for further updates as the Covid situation hopefully eases.

The Spring Bulb and Flower Show needs YOU!

September 28th, 2021

It is with regret, much soul searching and consultation with bulb show committee members past and present, that the bulb show has come to an end. With fewer and fewer entries each year, it was felt that the break, forced on us by the pandemic (the last bulb show was in March 2018), provided a time of refection and the current committee has reluctantly stood down. BUT, all is not lost. If you feel that you would like to see the bulb show resurrected, please contact Roz Mullin, who will be very happy to organise a meeting for new potential […]

Payhembury Bulb and Flower Show 2018

May 5th, 2018

Despite the inclement weather being against us, I’m sure you’ll agree the hall looked a picture on the day of the show. It was great to see so many bulbs and flowers which made it spring-like even though the day was freezing, and it kept trying to snow.   On behalf of the committee I would like to give thanks and acknowledge those that helped make the show the success that it was. Thank you to: • Mo for the beautiful and enormous fruit basket donated for the raffle. • Joan and Clare for stewarding and also Joan for running […]

Payhembury Spring Bulb & Flower Show 2016

July 20th, 2017

The hall looked beautiful on show day thanks to the concerted efforts of all those who displayed exhibits, and it smelled pretty good too. Thank you to all those who entered – without you there would be no show, and it proved yet again that there are a lot of talented Payhembrians out there. I would like to thank the committee first and foremost; for some it was their first show and everyone rose to the challenge and helped make sure everything ran smoothly. Also to Jo Vincent, Joan Jarvis, Julie Moore, Pat Holdaway and all the committee children who helped in one way or another. […]

Payhembury Spring Bulb and Flower Show 2015

March 30th, 2015

It was a lovely show this year, and the hall looked fabulous as ever with the golden daffodils and all the tasty food. It is obvious that there are a lot of talented people in Payhembury when you walk around admiring the exhibits. Unfortunately there were fewer entries than last year and less people in attendance. This could be due to a number of contributory factors, such as the fact that it was Mothering Sunday the following day and people were away, there was a craft fair in Broadhembury at the same time and one of the reasons was definitely […]
