Edinburgh in Bloom Presentation
Sadly the weather caused the postponement of the presentation ceremony during December. The Council hope to rearrange the event in the early part of 2011.We did manage to get our hands on the fantastic trophy made available to the competition by the Scottish Allotments and Gardens Association (SAGS). This picture was taken at the Allotment Show; the trophy having been presented by Councillor Robert Aldridge, the city's environment leader.
The trophy was originally presented by the 'Scottish Union of Allotment Holders' back in 1936. It is solid silver and is very heavy! We are delighted to get Inverleith's name on this important relic of Allotments in Scotland.
