The Flower Show Top Tray Class is for a display of

(3), peas (6 pods), potatoes (3), runner beans (6
pods), tomatoes (6).

Each type of vegetable will be judged out of a
total of 20 points.This is split into three sections: 7
points for size, shape and colour; 7 points for
condition; 6 points for uniformity.The total marks
will therefore be 60.

All vegetables are to be displayed for effect, within
an area of 18” x 24” (45cm x 60cm).This can be a
tray (measured area within lip) or a board or the
area can simply be marked on the staging.
No part of any vegetable may be bent and no
part of any exhibit may exceed the size of the
display area.

A black cloth is allowed or the tray may be
painted. Parsley is allowed for garnishing but no
other foliage or accessories (eg plates, sand, rings).
Onion tops may be tied or whipped using raffia.
