Heart melting fragrance, spectrum of colours, divine atmosphere
all combine at the Hamilton Fall Garden & Mum Show
Chrysanthemums traditionally take centre stage in the autumn as the sumptuous palette of the
season revolves around orange, brown, green, yellow and red, with a hint of pink and purple.
People want to snuggle up indoors as daylight fades and Chrysanthemum are just perfect
for those warm cosy moments. Chrysanthemums bring swathes of colour to the end of summer.
The Mum Show as most people refer to the show started in 1920 and has seen many changes over the years.
A new theme each year has taken us through dramatic scenes of flowers, colours and displays.

In 2011 the Hamilton Fall Garden & Mum Show took place in the newly built greenhouse facility.
Over 20,000 square feet of display space houses the show.
The new greenhouse facility allowed for the creation of a new design and layout.
A new children’s area, live demonstration area and an expanded vendor area was created.
In addition to the many new features, the greenhouse facility allows for an expanded display area
with larger isles and multiple areas to rest and enjoy the beauty of the many displays
