A floral event was a blooming success, with green-fingered guests raising over £750 for Dales charities.
David and Molly Chatfield, of Ashover, opened their garden for the Fuchsia Fantasia event on Saturday.
Fuchsia expert David showed guests around the 100 types of the beautiful plant which grow in the couple's garden, which included several of his own new varieties.
David said: "We were absolutely delighted with the result and the support we received from family and friends.
"We were also very lucky with the weather," he added.
The money raised will be given to All Saints' Church and Dales charities, including Ashgate Hospice.
