I have had a look at the RHS websit
www.rhs.org.uk/cardiff
and don't see sufficient information about what there is for vegetable gardeners to substantiate the remarks on page 8 of the May magazine.
It desn't appear to be a substitute for Malvern, poor though that is for the dedicated veg.grower and at a high admission price these days with only a £1 discount for pre-booking. Malvern does has good facilities in case the weather turns nasty, Cardiff warns against over-optimism.
Opinions, please

It's page 6 actually, but I expect that it's just a press release sent by the RHS and of course it's going to push the veggie side, however slight, as they were wanting KG to publish it. Too far for me to consider attending anyway.

EEEEKKK,

Visiting Cardiff over the bank holiday weekend !!!!! you must be joking..heavy traffic, nowhere to park (unless you are the first 150 disabled visitors) Extortionate parking fees or walking miles. There is a car park in Sophia gardens (the other side of the river to Bute park) but this used to get full before 9 am and that was 18 years ago when I worked there!

Count me out!
