The Darlington Chrysanthemum and Dahlia Society held its annual early show at the Dolphin Centre on Saturday.

The society's top growers mixed with members of the public to show their flowers and highlight their long horticultural tradition in the town.

Show secretary Kelvin Vincent said the show had been well attended by exhibitors although the number of visitors had been a bit disappointing. Detailed results will be published next week.

The late show will take place at the Dolphin Centre on November 8.
