Sam Moore, of Great Totham, is one of eight horticultural students in the grand final of the Young Horticulturalist of the Year competition, beating more than 1,800 other entrants across the UK.
Sam, 18, said the regional final, which included plant identification test and buzzer rounds, had gone better than expected.
