Clare
Dixey, of Thompson
& Morgan, said: “We open our trial grounds to the
public this coming weekend.
“We always put on a magnificent display and always try to
improve every year to make it better for our customers.
“We decided to create a huge wall of flowers.
When it came into flower, we thought 'wow' - no one had seen
anything quite like it and we had an idea of going for the
Guinness world record. “It looks absolutely spectacular. Whatever
pictures are taken they don't do it justice.”
Previously, it broke an existing record in 2004
for displaying the largest amount of potato varieties.
