You must be very sheltered.

You're welcome, it's quite a good show, nothing like the big ones, but a pleasant day nonetheless and Vivary Park is lovely

you could maybe try the Taunton one this year G, not too far to travel and not a huge amount of walking around

Yes, I've been to Vivary Park twice. I have it in my diary - I'm still hoping to get to Hampton Court first. Not the posh evening do, though! ;D

I bought one last year and kept it under cover over winter in case we had another severe one, it wasn't too bad though last winter, what kills them more than cold is wet soil over winter and under glass you can control it better, so....yes ;D
