Growing acclaim for gardeners
Two gardening students have been recognised by the Royal Horticultural Society.
The society, which hosts the annual Chelsea Flower Show, has given awards to Leicestershire students Sarah Morley and Christine Hammond.
Sarah, from Woodhouse Eaves, received the Centenary Prize for the highest achievement in the RHS Level 2 Certificate in Horticulture, which she studied at Brooksby Melton College.
Sarah manages a software business within a global engineering consultancy, but she also has a full allotment and takes part in the Woodhouse Eaves Horticultural Show, where she has received the prize for the best allotment.
Christine, from Leicester, was awarded the Anne Menhinick Prize for the highest achievement in the RHS Level 2 Certificate in Horticulture for someone who is under 30 years of age.
Christine is a civil servant but took the qualification because she hopes to start her own plant nursery.
